Just curious how many hours you people gotta drive before you get to ride. I ask cause i just moved from a smaller town for 20 years in the middle of now where surrounded by trees and wilderness to the city. before I could leave from my house and be in the most awesome trails ever(its actually the reason why i bought my last 2 houses where i did was to leave from home). i was gonna give up riding and sold my last bike...I come to realize at the age of 35 that I cant live without one...its just now the closest place i get to ride is 1.5 hours away....after that its like 4 hours...mind you its in the mountains or dunes...How far for you?

2-3 tracks and some decent trails w/ in an hours drive. I'll drive 1:15 for 1100 acres of really nice trails and the new Texas X MX park is going up 5 minutes from my house. It'll have a few tracks and a lot of trails + a lot more.

I guess I can stop complaining when I have to wake up at 8:00 on the weekends to be riding by 10:00.

Time to look at a dual-sport. Then you can ride to where you're going to be riding ;)

I can ride trails right from my house, or drive 15 minutes to a fun sand area, 40 minutes to the local track/cross-country facility or 4+ hours to race in the Okanagan.
