Always south to KY or TN. Brimstone, Royal Blue, Rush, Wildcat, DTOR.

You should try to make it to Pioneer Takeover next year.

We started at HM a couple of years ago and have ventured off the beaten path a few times but always seem to wander back. Just soo well taken care of and well marked trails. Not to mention being able to eat right on the trails . I took my mom to Wildcat in August when I first got the p1000 as a break in trip, thats a pretty nice place. Easy drive down. Dad and I went to Rush last fall after season. We weren't all that crazy about it. Short drive but he has a Foreman and wasn't thrilled about some of the rutted out downhills from all the Jeeps and sandrails. He actually walked his four wheeler down several hills. I imagine it's better groomed in season? I have buddies that sing Windrock's praises but some RZR guys at Wildcat tild me I'd hate it in a Pioneer. Still too new for me to be crazy about taking it over large rock walls/drop offs.

I never did see dates for the take over for 2019, was it decided? It's at RRB every year right? Sounds like a cool event I've def been keeping an eye on it.

I would listen muchbto those RZR guys. Some RZR guys told me I couldn’t handle Brimstone with my machine. I had no issues and rode with RZR 900 and CanAm 1000. I think I winched once that they didn’t have to and I run a little P500.
We ran Windrock many years ago in Jeeps but not with Sxs yet. I think there would be plenty of trails to do without getting crazy. We will likely next year. They are well marked. RRB is also well marked.
HM is also on our list to hit.

Takeover dates have been announced to lifetime and supporting members. Should be release soon to general public. We have our camping spots booked!!!!

I am on the Ohio/Indiana state line. Close to Hamilton, Ohio. P500. I’ve rode at Pike state forest and Franklin Furnace a long time ago! Would like to go on rides with others

I am over all happy with the shocks. I would like to compare them to the fox shocks. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to test drive an LE and mine over the same terrain soon. I love the increased clearance, lack of body roll and flex they give. I still have some bottoming issues in certain circumstances and I am trying to tune that out without making the ride harsh. Higher shock speeds are one place a nitrogen charged shock might be better than these. Slower trail riding<20mph I think these are hard to beat.

I am on their Facebook group and want to go. We've made 4 trips to Perry APV park real close to there. The state parks are closed until April 15th so we would be up for meeting people at Tecumseh.

West central Ohio here, east of Indian Lake. Has anyone checked out Tecumseh Trails yet? Tecumseh Trails

I have not but it's been on our radar. My buddy bought a Rancher down that way last year from a guy that knows the people that own it- he said it was a cool property and worth checking out. Seemed to think pretty highly of the owners.

You'll have to keep us posted if you go down to check it out. If the weather breaks this winter I wouldn't be opposed to giving it a shot.

Yeah, I've been wanting to check them out too. A friend at work has a brother that's been down a few times, says he really likes it. He said it's so new that the trails aren't fully developed, but also not all rutted out and torn up from the full size vehicles YET. Says it's well worth the time to check it out. I have my new P1K-3 front end torn down right now installing forward arched a-arms and winch, but should have it back together by end of week (waiting on new ball joints). Then need to get a few dozen miles on it in the fields around the house to make sure i'm not gonna have any of the overheating problems I've been reading about on here. Took the day off work today to go get her registered and everything, so i should be ready to go by the end of next week. Let me know if you guys are planning on heading down any time after that and i'll do the same. That's not too far from JTW's neck of the woods if i'm not mistaken, we should hit him up too!

Tecumseh is over by New Lexington between Perry APV and Wayne national.

@JTW is in Kentucky. Wildcat is in Kentucky about an hour north of Royal Blue. I'm not positive what part of Kentucky he's in, but I'm sure you just follow the banjo music.

EDIT:
I was just reading thru their rules, and it says no Jeeps, Railbuggies etc. etc. Sooo, not sure if that's a new rule, or friends brother had the wrong info about the full sizers tearing the place up??? IDK, be more fun to just go check it out in person anyway!!

I did a stent down in Owensboro a couple years ago. Thats a beautiful area. Couple good motocross tracks in that area I rode quite a bit when I was down there.
