Tracks are closing, Rattlesnakes and Thorne-Lined trails and Tumbleweeds every where you go! 😳
Tyler is an Hour and a half from Dallas and Shreveport, La.
In North Louisiana you have Desoto Motorsports which is owned by Trampas Parker’s family and West Monroe.
You have Swan MX in Tyler.
Canton is about 30 minutes closer to Dallas than Tyler
and you have Buffalo Creek and South Central. They are only about 3 or 4 miles apart.
Dallas has a ton of tracks. I’m not going to name all of them
and you also have Underground, Athens, Freestone and Red Bug , Paris and Johnsonville which are all really close to Tyler and Canton.
The Shop
I bought a toy hauler and have a pickup to pull it so if I find a good base camp I can run around. Ill have my FX350 and I’ll bring an adventure bike too so I’d like to be able to be somewhat near the ocean and cool little pubs etc.
Mainly though, places to ride fast on trails, enter hair scrambles events ride moto and enter some races. Meet folks (maybe of the female persuasion
Croom has fast trails you can blaze, Ocala National Forest probably does too (never ridden out there), and there are tons of MX tracks sprinkled throughout the state and central Florida especially. Spyder MX, Dade City, Tampa MX, Bartow MX, Orlando MX (in Bithlo), Pax Trax, 74 Family Fun Park, Waldo, the list goes on. Some are sand, some more hard packed. Check them out and take your pick.
For race series there are multiple motocross series running and for hare scrambles you can join and race Florida Trail Riders. Spyder MX is looking to do a stand-alone GP early next year and Day in the Dirt might be back at Dade City next year too. FX 350 would be perfect for FTR and any racing you would want to do here.
I’d look into Conroe/The Woodlands in Houston area. 3 Palms MX Park is open 5 Days a week and there are apartment complexes everywhere (literally next door).
In addition to 3 Palms, there are multiple other tracks within an hours drive.
Oh and say hello to Barbie at the Barstow Bunny Ranch 😂
I know it’s 12 hours from eastern NC to South Georgia. Not too bad if you are planning to stay atleast the weekend.
That terrain is pretty vertical out there.

This is from today, tomorrow will be Bitchen. You can visit LACR MX Track and I-5 MX as well. Cal City is another awesome track in the area.
I've been all over florida and my favorite area to be is santa rosa beach which is in-between destin and panama city. There's a few pan handle tracks and also a couple killer ones not far north in alabama. Then for a long weekend here or there make the trips around the rest of florida to the lower tracks.
If you're considering a place in cali, you can afford to buy enough house and land in lower alabama to build your own moto paradise.
Pit Row
I practiced at most of the SoCal tracks with Pala being the most frequented at ten minutes away but they all offered lots of fun jumps and even some rough areas especially Glen Helen which is most like my Minnesota tracks especially Millville. I was able to tune in my new A kit suspension on my FX 350 so I’m ready to race my Minnesota series coming up. Not to mention I’m in race shape for once!
Justin and his “twisted tree nursery” gang were great hosts and easy to be around. I even got to sit in and play a few songs with a live band at a cook out they had
I would highly recommend renting a parking spot to any pro or amateur rider to practice and race the SoCal tracks. Thanks Justin!
Thanks for Sharing The Stoke!
Sure if I come next year you’ll have plenty of stuff to fix😜
And ya I know there’s more to California, been top to bottom but this area is pretty much the moto Mecca plus the thing that put it over the top is Justin’s moto camp!
