Bought up like 9 local oil wells an plumed all the gas there . So the pits is fully heated an there is heating in the track area but it’s more just to keep it above freezing temps

LOL we have no local oil wells here, so propane forced air at industrial sizes would be needed, which is not cheap. Cold and wet here in the winter, 5-7 months of it. What's he charge per rider? Can't be cheap to run with power, heating, insurance, maintenance, etc.

Yes he was in a good situation there with the heating.  That’s one of the most expensive Necessity’s of running an indoor facility for sure .  They charge 40 a ride at rt 62

Dirtbikes in the dead of winter is the best. Fortunate to live only 40min from Cedar lake arena. We don’t have an outdoor place to ride remotely that close

Having grown up not far from Martinsburg it amazes me that such a nice facility has emerged in the area and not only stayed open but thrived. Kudos to Rt62, even though Im not in the area anymore, it warms the heart to see this place continue to grow!

looks like a pit bike track. 

Seen you ride before and you’d roll 80% of the “pit bike” track  (maybe 100% I literally can’t see you hitting anything)

This is absolutely a great time for moto in central ohio for sure .  We can ride 5 quality tracks within an hr an 3 indoor tracks within 3 hrs .  62 is by far in my opinion the best one .  An it’s only 50 min away 💪🏼 . Ole boy an the pit bike comment made me lol
