I always though usa as the plae to be when it comes to dirtbikes. But i heard from a guy who was over there that he could not get many hours a week on a mx-track unless he booked time for quite much money.

I would like to know how many days and hours a week you can get tracktime on tracks within 1 hour drivetime from your home. Also how much it costs you.

I have atleast 3 tracks i use to ride on. They are 30 to 45min drive from home. They are open 3 or 4 days a week, 3 to 5 hours a day. The cost is about $10 per day, unless you have membership which is about $150 a year, then you ride for free. Combining those tracks i can ride every day except friday if i want.

I have 14 tracks around me, the furthest is about 1.45, they run practice anywhere from weekend only to 7 days dawn to dusk, I have 2 within 20 minutes that are both 7 days dawn to dusk, they're all about $20.00 with a one time membership fee of $20.00.

But I would rather drive 2.5 - 3 hours to ride/race in the desert

The one track I mostly go to is open 7 days a week dawn till dusk for 10 bucks a shot or 125 for a year, there is also some trails on the land. I only know of 2 others within the specified driving time. One is open on wed for practice at 10 bucks and the other open on the weekends for 10.

I used to be able to ride 7 days a week for nothing at a track 5 miles away from my farm (granted it was only groomed or water before races), Now out here it is limited to about 4 days a week at most tracks. unless I cruise up in the high country.

Down here we can pretty much ride 7 days a week on selected tracks. Most tracks are around 20 - 30 min drive.

Closest track is 2 hours away, next closes is 3.5. Can only race, no practice days. Used to be able to rent the track for a day for $600 (up to 5 riders could split the cost). I think I need to get away from the stinking east coast:(

pyro, The US is a big big place. If you are planning a trip, move, or extended stay here, give us the city and state you are going to be in and you can get some localised information. It can vary widely depending on the city.

One track 45min can ride Tuesay-Sun 10-7pm, this is a practice track only. It's $15 if you pay for a $125 yearly membership or $20 to ride every time. The other tracks are only open once in awhile. Another track is open 2 days a week for practice, used to be more...but people had to compain about "the noise and dust polution..". That one is $20 to ride. Pretty much all of them are $15-$20 to ride on. Open twice a week minimum. Only a couple of tracks have open practice on specific days. The others kind of rotate out between all of the District tracks.
