TTR, this is what we go. St Joe State park, north of farmington.
finger lakes, around the columbia area.
chadwick MO. but that is more like 4 hours from St. Louis.
Then theirs Ebo, if ya got a back door to the area:D
I know there a a couple others, but I think these are the cheapest, with the most to offer... hope this helps!
look me up when you get in!

Hey-The best riding around St. Louis is in Kansas City!
Just kidding. TTR-If you are going to make it to the "West Coast" of Missouri, let us know. There is a ton of riding over here also.

St Jo Park is mostly SAND if you like riding in sand, its a great place.

Actually Rick is incorrect. St. Joe isn't sand. It is crushed rock that has the consistance of sand but doesn't damage the fork seals and bearings like sand does. The park is over 1800 acrees with 800 acrees being the sand flats with over 1000 acres being trails/trees riding area.

St. Joe has just about every type of riding condition i can think of, and a big park to boot. The best thing is thought, only $2 bucks to ride!
yes, it is made up of alot of loose stuff on the flats, you jus need to get back in the hills.

I live in Centralia, IL which is about 1 hour from St. Louis. I've got about 60 acres of trails and my father-in-law and I built a motocross track on his property......or, there is always Casey as AJ mentioned. Bone and I ride alot together, he just lives across the street from me......Let me know if you are in the area and would like a few places to go riding, I'm always game!

LTM is just 120 miles into Illinois from St. Louis. Roughly 2 hrs.

If I recall correctly, I drove though lots of loose sand just to get to the trails. So if that wasn't sand I was driving though, it must of been baby powder.

KnarlyKaw,
The guys I go to Flat River with are always talking about the good ol' days and some of those days were spent riding at EBO. I've been going to Flat River at least once a year for nearly 10 years, but never experienced EBO. Any chance of getting a private tour of this playground through the backdoor??
