It's about 10 miles east of Denver and 4 miles south of I-70.

If you were to ever come this way it would cost you $15 for the day. They have a pro track, int. track, and beginner/peewee track. Plus open riding area. Open to bikes and ATVs Locals must a membership for 20 and then it cost 10 for the day.

I rode that track mostly. It was my favorite. Fast track. Do they still have the 90+' jump there. That was the best part of that track, would never hit it if the wind sock off to the east was horizontal though. I still have my gear, bought new shortly before I decided to sell the bike.

I think they still have the 90' jump, I'm a desert racer, this was my second time on a track. I'm not brave enough to hit that big. Plus my quad is setup for rough terrain, I don't know if it would handle that hard of a landing.

It's big. Just have to land on the sweet spot. On a quad I would think you would have to land straight. I over jumped that thing one time, cleared the wholetransition point by about 10' Did not ride for a few weeks. Was lucky only sprained ankles. Do they still have the sand pit play area?

It is not a sand pit by any means but there is the open area. Lot's of hills and little jumps in the open area. I normally do like the 100 mile races out at CORE and those big distance races. I have a race coming up in Feb. in California. Part of the track is mx style so I figured I better learn to ride it.
