Dixiana Sand Pitts in Columbia SC

My friend and I rode all the way out to Gaston and back on those trails by the railroad tracks Sunday. Then I took the tracks into Cayce. There was enough stuff out there to keep me busy all day. Anyone else ride out there?

We used to ride out there all of the time...until someone (most definitely NOT a rider) started vandalizing the equipment out there. That's when they started closing the gate, putting up No Trespassing signs, and issuing tickets. A friend took his wife out there and they each got a $75 ticket for trespassing.

I had to quit going because I couldn't very well tell the kids, "OK, now if you see the police on the trail...RUN!"

They were patrolling the trails back behind the pits with four wheelers and pulling out in front of riders to stop/catch them.

I have ridden there before but not since the no trespassing signs went up.

It is definately an off-limits place to ride.

Kenny Hardee showed me the area across 321 where they used to have the old Columbia Enduro. It's almost all the way to Gaston and on the other side of 321 from the sand pitts.
Allot of people still ride around the Sandpitts but you really need a dual sport bike to do it right.
I know, I know, I'm supposed to be all about
'responsible riding" Can't be that way all the time though.

I haven't had a problem doing it.
