Not sure what they mean by that. I live in Franklin county and have never had a problem riding Iron Gap/ Bull Run. Im off next 4 days so I might hop on bike and go check out these directions. Coalmont isn't far from me. If I can find secondary roads, may even drive the p1k. If I go I'll report back what I find.Picked this off an old Windrock ATV Forum post on March 2013:
"Riding trails in Franklin Co. has become a headache. I have found a new place to ride with endless trails and with no headache involved. Just head over to coalmont,tn. and you can park beside a old store that isn't open anymore over by the Grundy EMS building and across from the Coalmont Post office. From there you will take Phipps St. around the curve that runs into Heidenburg Rd N until you come to 7th Ave. Take a left there and go straight on that road and it changes into Company Farm Rd. till you see the Colonial Pipeline on the right. It's a natural gas sub-station of some sort. The dirt road your looking for is just past the Colonial Pipeline to the right. once your on the dirt road,your on your own! Days,weeks,months,even yrs. of riding with no hassle.We met many folks out there and from what they say,no one cares about people riding the trails there and everyone was very nice in giving directions. There is a gravel road out there that you can take a road off the mountain and ride into the hollows and ride forever through 3 counties. If you ride long enough you will endup in Savage Gulf and there is a very old church out in the middle of nowhere. Use your Google map and check it out and you will see these trails but being there is the best way.With all the trouble we are having with riding in Franklin Co. this is the best place to ride with no one getting bent out of shape because your riding. Of course, respect the land and don't litter! Happy Trails everyone!"
This is all new to me, but I am looking forward to some fun Adventures!
