This is for my Minnesota peeps, I am planning on hitting up Trax North for open practice this Saturday 6/20. First ride since moving from SoCal, so anyone riding up there this weekend? Seeing as NOBODY I know up here rides, I will be going solo. Also, any tire tips for this area's dirt? Currently have MX 34's mounted up...

Also, why the hell do we not have a regional track sub-forum on this site? Seems we have been asking for one forever...

Little Falls and Staples

Meadow Valley (a drive for you but worth it) 

Trax North is so sick! You’ll have fun dude and an MX34 is great for most tracks here.


BCMX is one of the only tracks that’s like straight up deep sand.

You'll be fine with MX34's, but a MX14 would be great too.  Trax North is sand on top of a clay base.  Early in the day the MX14 would be better but it will get down to a harder base as it gets rougher.  It's a great track.

I live in the cities & haven’t ventured to Trax. How do they format their practice days? I’m used to Meadow’s ride as much as you want for $40.

It's an open practice, ride as much as you want, $40 for big bikes.

Millville has sat practice & sun a Racer X vet race it runs with there super series.  Not a big # of riders in classes, c class I think is the smallest .  It’s cold here 56 & rain I hv to wear under armor . My back , hip is Very painful, it band & foot is numb. In the morning if I,m not worse I,m getting my 1st ride in .  On the deep sand sx track there is some clay on it they trucked in , 2+ hrs from here. Our local track 20 min away  was sold & it’s not a track now.

You're welcome to come hang out with us. We usually park up top near the sign in shack. Black pickup.

Other post above was spot on with the tires.

Burrito place with the brewery next to it in Crosby is amazing after a good track day.

Thanks for the invite, I will look you guys up for sure. I'll be in a black Chevy 1500 with probably the only Beta 450RX there. I even have some new FXR gear to wear so I fit in. 😊

Used to be a regional forum on this page if I remember right. It was dead and got nuked. 

Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

Another sick track is called echo valley. It’s more north but it’s sweet.

Trax North is the kind of place you dream of buying when you win the lottery. The times Ive been there, the lawn is mowed like a PGA Golf Course. 

If you are into MTB's, Crosby is a MTB hub in MN. The trails may be a bit overrated, but certainly a good spot

Echo Valley (aka Brookston) is an AMAZING track. It does have a fair amount of rocks, but the soil is great and it flows up and down some very fun hills.

Minnesota has to have one of the best moto communities in the country.  There are probably 10-15 public tracks within ~2 hours of me

About 3 yrs ago I thought about moving there. Most tracks are north of the twin cities if I remember right.a lot of cool sand tracks.  Motokazie series fri night series at a fair grounds I think would be fun. Plus double headers during the week at other fairs would be a Blast.  I think there was 1 week with 3 fair races & a double header on the weekend.

How did you go from talking about Palo Duro to Minnesota? Asking for a friend.

Have you ridden at the 509 Bike Farm? I haven't ridden since cancer surgery and it'd be nice to find a place to ride that's close and low-key.
