How many of you are going to make the Iron City ride this weekend? 2 days of rain is going to make it perfect!

I am planning on riding both days.

im just not a fan of IC's practice schedule. 5 groups, 15 minutes each...you ride 15 then wait around for an hour. that blows any which way you cut it. hopefully the track will be in good shape. it wasnt up to its usual standards the last time i went out for their open practice, but with them having a loretta's qaulifier and 4 weekends straight of AMA races, im sure patrick and the crew will have it right.

i went there last year. good layout, some fun stuff with a nice huge right-hand sweeper...im talking 3rd\4th gear, but i didnt care for the jumps. poorly placed with off faces with holes and kickers everywhere. just my $.02

4.5 hrs from ohio? teens suck, no riding sucks. 9 hours of driving sucks too. place isnt worth it to me, but ive been riding every weekend. theres another place right near there that is a lot better. center road. check out www.crmxonline.com check the schedule, to make sure they are open and arnt having a race, but if not that place in my opinion is mucho better...

Iron City is about 30 min from my house and that includes stopping at Hardees for breakfast. Practice opens at 10 AM but I thinking I will roll in around noon.

There was about 300 riders there today and I was told to expect a lot more tomorrow!

They cut down the size of a couple of their landing doubles so the track was even safer for an old, slow.....dont jump like I used to.... guy like me. Unsure

NC rules. I left 6 inches of snow and rode both days this weekend.
East Bend Sat & ThunderValley Sunday. Excellent weather and great dirt.

When I left the track on Sat I was following a truck & trailer from WVA.

Iron City is doing the same thing next weekend too.

Trying to do another trip in late feb or march.

In a little over 4 hours from home we found a 45 dollar hotel with 3 tracks within 45 minutes. Worked out great for us. Hope that center roads is open next time.
