I've been goin to WV about 20 years usually riding atleast 50 miles up to 110 in single day trips all "outlaw" trails until this year I went with some folks to Hatfield McCoy and only made it 30 or so miles and I was disappointed in how easy those trails were. I could have taken my Tahoe down most of those trails. Just trying to find some other folks who enjoy riding like I do and would like to go for more than 1 day. It would be great to ride 2-3 days and never hit the same trail twice.

i like staying at ashland so we can hit the outlaws or hm trails and i like to put alot of miles on but depends on the size of the group and the trails

Right, I agree it is hard to get far or fast with a bigger group. But also fun to watch people try mud holes or hill climbs especially after some liquid encouragement! So it can be fun either way

80+ machines on JBS spring ride at Rider's Paradise. Way too many but we did do about 70 miles that day which is a lot for that big of a group.

Wow! Very impress to do 70 miles with that many machines! That's what I'm talking about, I would love to be a part of that! I love riding with peeps who know how to handle the terrain and their machines so you aren't waiting on them around every corner. How did you get that many people together?

All 70 miles on outlaw trails. It was a long day. Left the parking lot at 10:30 and got back at 9:30. We were at the bar probably 2 hours with people waiting on food.

JBS has 2 large group rides each year. One in spring and one in the fall. Ride leaves from Skyline resort parking lot. Most people stay at Skyline Resort. They are Atv freindly and welcome the group rides. I can park your toy hauler in the parking lot and if you get there early ( wed. Or Thur. ) there is an electrical box to plug into. 2 full days of riding on Friday and Saturday. 50-70 miles each day. Some ride on Thursday.

That sounds like alot of fun! I've never parked there, or prob saw those trails. Is that the only time yal go to WV?

 

[Choogsbro]

Last July we stayed at Ashland and the year before that we stayed at Hawks river cabins on Rockhouse trails.

 

[VaHillbilly]

Nice I've never heard of those, how long does it take you to get to Ashland?

Looks nice! Maybe worth a stay. I went this past Sunday and parked in pocahontas at the spearhead trails and rode some different outlaw trails that were good, nice to see some different but only made it about 40 miles from 10-4. Left me wanting more and ready to go back! Any takers?
