It's located on 280th street, in Garwin, Iowa. It's not easy to find. Many cornfields to navigate around. One must be determined to find it, i saw no signs, directing one towards her.

Hear me now, if this track was in Ohio- and open for practice, there'd be a thousand riders every time the gate opened.

Sure is green. Looks like good dirt. Like a real motocross track. I rode at Pala/Fox today. It wasn't that much fun.

Mostly natural terrain and great looking dirt...this type of track would get the attention of anyone wanting to experience MX for the first time. The female photographer has some serious equipment...(camera).

Love seeing the latest and greatest but there’s something about mismatched gear, old bikes, lots of utes/families that just feels good to look at. Awesome pics Rupert!

Hope to see you and many others back for the Evergood Open in October. It's a dang good place run by good people for the right reasons and that event is always a great time geared around growing grass roots MX racing.

How is the dirt/prep? I have never been there before, but the layout looks sweet.

Looks good Rupert. I looked it up. Just outside of Marshalltown. I have relation there and never knew they had a Moto Field of Dreams near by. Zoom Zoom.

Was born in Ft Dodge, IA
Used to race district 22. So many awesome times and memories. many good tracks up there that disappeared. Nice to see such a great facility.
I miss Iowa, but I sure am glad I can ride year round where I live now.

That place still open? I remember when they first opened and raced there a few times. Gavin Gracik (sp?) straight walked away from me in the 125 class.
