There is a lot of land-locked, "junk" (i.e. too hilly to develop) property in Warren County. What is junk to a developer is GOLD to us!

With enough people behind me, I would be willing to approach some of these owners to work on a lease or lease to purchase. 100 acres could provide 7 to 10 miles of trails.

The state promises to provide two riding parks (one in NNJ and the other in SNJ) by 2005. I'll believe it when I'm riding on the trails there!

i thought there is supposed to be 3, north , central ,and southern NJ. ?
the one near cape may court house i dont think will last. open on weekends only and doesnt seem like the funds are coming in.

chatsworth raised its price to $75 a day , after a couple months of that it has been lowered to $50. still way to expensive IMO.

RVSjunkie good luck , one thing you can try is getting a private land owner to let you ride , but they cant charge you for riding. what you can do is give the land owner $ as long as its not a set price.

good luck and if you ever get something going let us know and we'll bring he bikes and the cash or even a shovel to help out . ;o)

well im headed back out in the woods, lunch time is over,

I'm in to supposrt any reasonable effort to get more places to ride. I rode yesterday on 65 acres of land that is for sale currently in Amwell (about 10 min. north of flemington on 202). Unfortunately, the land owner is looking for 2.3M but let me tell ya... if I had 2.3M bucks, I would buy this place in a heartbeat! Awesome 4 car garage, incredible house (6000Sq feet, 8 bedroom brand new contemporary) , in ground swimming pool, and dozens of wide open acres of secluded horse fields waiting to be developed into an awesome little offroad park.

It's all flat now, rolling hills and such, but that could be changed. They are even talking about making it into a 9 hole golf course.

Can we raise that kind of cash? :)

I don't think we'd have to. I would try to work on a long-term lease or lease/purchase basis. Additionally, I would approach the state to provide funding and resources for such a location.

We can do this! We need to become a squeaky wheel with many members.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll squeak all we need if you tell me who's listening!
