Dirt or street?
Both actually. I got a ktm superduke 990 and its all freeway and no back roads around here I've grown to hate it already lol. But mostly for pit bikin it around that's what I'm tryin to find is some cool tracks/trails ya kno
Or even some mortard riding for a 110. I have street tires for it but I couldn't find anything online about any goKart tracks allowing them to ride around here or anything at all for that matter
I'm from bout 2 hours from the lou in charleston il we ride alot around here look em up at pitbike monday on facebook or pm ure number and we will send yoiu info on ride days or races....always looking for guys to ride usually we get about 10 or 15 on a given ride

I'm in Troy IL just across the river.
Got any places to ride?
I ride on some private property I got permission to use in Edwardsville that's on 30 acres, but other than that no. We've just started riding out there so we're still cutting trails and clearing areas. I'm really wanting to check out St Joe State park, South Fork Dirt Riders in Taylorville IL and maybe Lincoln Trail in Casey, IL. What about you, got anywhere you go?
Casey sucks lol for big bike motocross anyway I used to go to isu and that track was the closest I hated it after the 2nd time I went there. I've been to st joes it's pretty fun even by myself I had fun out there. We just got a house with 4 open acres and I'm in the process of getting a lot of dirt to build a motocross track so without traveling about an hour and a half from my house my only option is gunna be my new backyard lol. St Louis area sucks for anything dirtbike related
I live in bethalto il near alton we ride a lot at least every other day. We are redoing are track now but there is about 5-8 tracks that are set up just for pitbikes.
Have you been to Casey since they have opened the new "bomber track" ? much nicer than the old one.
05 CRF 50 - TB 88cc big bore kit with race head and cam, bbr triple clamp/bars, tall seat kit, +1 forks, upgraded rear shock/shock extender, bbr pipe, UNI filter, carbon fiber plastics.
04 CRF 50 - Stock + training wheels![]()
Casey is an icon when it comes to big bike mx.. Casey has been around for over 30 years they must do something right but anyway bomber track is awesome at ltm went there and bombed the pitbikes couple weeks back dirt riders is nice for big bikes not so sure about pitbikes. Casey you can always find something to ride with 2 big tracks 1 pitbike track and 220 acres of trails/woods. We do some riding up that way around few different tracks shoot me a pm if you guys make it up. Also our annual 2nd annual pitbike des nations race is September 22
I don't know about dirt yet but can't complain about the back roads around StL. I've been riding street all my life and we have twisty hilly backroads that can compete with any in the country.
I've heard of Let's go Nutz up by Fulton MO but thats about it. I have not been there but I have been planning to go there this spring
This thread is a year old but I'll put in my piece again. I lost my riding spot in Edwardsville but I did go to Taylorville and also Coulterville which are both alot of fun. But they are pretty far too. Splinter Creek in Alton IL is having pit bike races now on the TT track. I was gonna go last weekend but it was rained out. If anyone ever gets together PM me and I'll give you my number. I've got a few buddies that ride Big Wheel 80's that like to mess around too.
