I’m here for the summer and brought my bike and quad down with me. I’m in Mullica Hill. Does anyone here know any open areas to ride? I’ve been to the tracks already just looking for a open area. And no I’m not willing to illegally trespass or anything. Someone with permission or a open public area is good. Thanks!

If you're not willing to ride illegally in NJ, the options are pretty limited, but there are some areas that allow licensed bikes in the Pine Barrens. Otherwise Field of Dreams at NJMP and good ol' Englishtown are the only two public MX tracks I know of in NJ. There are a few tracks in Delaware though, but I've never been to those.

Good Luck lol. Outside of NJMP and Englishtown there are really only a handful of private tracks. I have a few that i am allowed at in south jersey, but its not my property to invite people out to.

I am pretty sure all the Delaware tracks are closed now. I live in Philly and just ride at Field of Dreams, Englishtown, and Southwick. I'd love to ride some sand pits in south jersey, though...

FoD does have trails since it sounds like that's what you're looking for, but I don't know how extensive and expensive that might be.

There are places in Pennsylvania and New York that aren't too far that also have trail riding available, but that's a decent drive from South Jersey.

You might be interested in additional tracks in Pa. ? Pagoda Motorcycle Club has open practice on July 6th and check out Sleepy Hollow MX Park, they had open practice this past weekend. Check their instagram for posts.

Anyone ever ride at or see videos of Nuevo in Riverside County CA? Are the NJ sand pits similar to those tracks? If so, I’d risk having to pay bail money to ride them.

I found a open area in my neighborhood and some place near a self storage. My neighbors are pretty cool and all wave back and give a smile in return probably don't seem to mind. i tend to go around 12-4pm and not go full gas just little bits of throttle to avoid constant loud noise. Hopefully one day I'll meet a fellow rider or a cool farmer so I can get another place to ride

Both tracks are different...Pagoda is red clay based with a valley that makes for safe high speed jumping and Sleepy Hollow is more natural terrain with nice loamy dirt and elevation changes. Both great facilities that take pride in their tracks and a treat when they are open for public practice and D6 race events. Check out these MotoSport track videos....

New Jersey riders, we’re getting screwed out of having fun! I’ve got a CR125R, no plate, just a wannafor rip. But NJ is designed to keep us off the throttle, shutting down our spots and leaving us with nowhere to ride. we should get in a group and hit the pits before the season starts and the patrols crack down. Let’s have fun. Who’s in? MAKE NJ GREAT AGAIN!

unfortunately no one is going to give up their riding spots to someone on the internet. It sucks to be that way but right now protecting our spots is priority in this shit hole state. Good luck.

No matter the state. Most people won’t be giving up spots. The less people riding these spots the better.

While I appreciate the enthusiasm, rolling into NJ pits with large groups of out-of-towners is the quickest way to attract police and park patrol. My best advice is to ride in a small group and strategize your parking, because that’s where the authorities end up getting you (waiting at your truck). Stay away from residences surrounding the pit because 90% of the time, they’re usually the ones calling the cops (the other 10% are riding the pit haha). The best legal way to ride some of these places is to race some ECEA harescrambles… many of these clubs set up layouts through the pits you’ve probably scoped on google maps.

Anyone still riding pits down in NJ wanna PM me? I haven’t been down in a few years, but I used to go to 2 in particular and was curious if they were still open. I won’t say them publicly in case it’s your current spot.

The sand pits in south NJ have the best dirt in the country, in my opinion. As others have said, you have to know someone who rides there who is willing to explain how you can ride there. Not information anyone wants to put on the internet, as the idiots ruin these places for everyone. It also rains year round, so I time it to go after it rains.

I always go during the week, and take some trash from said idiots with me when I leave. 

If you live in south NJ, talk to people. Otherwise, field of dreams and englishtown are fun tracks.

In the mid to late 80's we would run 100mph+   towing our bikes from PA down to the pine barrens every weekend to a place with initials like gym class.  Tracks and trails and miles of sand woops.   People talk smack about Jersey, I loved that place.  Such good times.  If only I had a time machine.  Pine barrens and Jersey girls.  Love it!!  Great to hear people are still bustin outlaw.

I was imported from the Midwest to NJ… and was one of the smack talkers, but this state has everything I want and more within an hours drive. 3 hours and I’m in DC or the ADK Mountains

The days of South Plainfield, Watchung, Forked River, Wall Township etc are long gone. Blue state and way over regulated. Back in the day if you took your goggles off during a race at Englishtown, Millville or New Eygup the State Police would write you a ticket. Good luck!

Quads are impossible legally.  As said,  tag your bike and yes you can tag whatever and ride all over.  Otherwise go to pa to the coal mines and pay.  Police athletic league(pal) in eht has a small moto track and some quad stuff but its really set up for kids and a bit pricy if out of town.  Most just ride illegally as there is literally no legal places.
