[QUOTE="motormichael, post: 281058, member: 25021"] [b]S-Tree/Redbird[/b] S-Tree is great for families. In fact it is really fun riding even for more agressive riders. You do not need a sticker to ride there but it is patrolled by the DNR. We have not had any problems at the camp in 4 trips. It is free of charge too. The DNR have stopped by to check on us a couple times. Do not get off of the trail, watch your fire, and clean up your mess and you will be fine. The trail is mostly two track but is no where close to being a fire road. There is plenty of trail trash ( rocks, roots ) and a ton of water bars. They become little doubles if you time them right. You will cross a few small creeks and there are a few small climbs. It is 9.5 miles one way to the road ( 421 ). We have had no problems with the law, riding the 1.5 miles of pavement that connects to the other 10 miles of trail. In fact, I asked an officer along the road and he said it was Ok. Just stay to the side and keep it slow. Even two 14 yr. olds on 80s went. The other 10 miles are my favorite. It is a bit more difficult but still fun. It connects to the other camp called Turkeyfoot. It is very nice up in there. Also at the S-Tree camp there is a 4.5 mile loop trail. This place is definitely worth the drive for you and your sons. As far as redbird gos, I have not been ther yet. I am going soon though. Prob. Easter week. I have done a lot of research on the place and here is some of what I know. It is located southeast of S-Tree. Fallow 421 s. to the Daniel Boone PKY. go east to Big Creek. It is 52 miles of trail that will take average riders 6hrs. in good conditions. One group told me it took them over 8hrs to go to the halfway point and return in the rain and cold. At one time the entire ride was single track and extreme in areas. Some of those areas remain but a lot of the trail has been rerouted and is now two track. This is not a beginners ride. If you intend on riding the entire loop you will need gas or a big tank. Some people hide gas cans near the halfway point. The main road cuts thru there. They say there is a very remote station in the town down there. Some sections of the trail are designated for licensed vehicles only, but it must not be enforced. Everyone I know that has rode the entire trail are not on licensed bikes. I am not saying that everyone should do this but it is very remote down there. If you take it easy on a small section of gravel road they will leave you alone. They can use your business in town. How old are your sons? I have a 15 yr. old and a 7 yr. old. I want to take the little one to S-Tree soon. Mike [/QUOTE]
