Great idea Jeff. We have a lot of second generation, & third generation riders coming up. My grandson, Max has an XR80 now and i've been wanting to put a ride together for the kids.
I know LT and several others that would be interested.
Any ideas on a good safe place.

elsinore is good in the midweek, but very busy at the weekends (i am led to believe).
my suggestion would be comp park. ive been the last three saturdays and its not too busy, but i still havent managed to convince anyone to come out and play there! the last two times was at the new facility, they have two or three tracks open now for the little ones ranging from pee wee upwards. they also have a couple of larger tracks for us bigger kids, the MXDN track rocks! there is also lots of open space to get the really small ones started, it has a nice family feel and atmosphere.
my advice would to go there in a couple of weeks, its all new so they are still putting the final touches on, but its coming on good.
i am definately sold on the place, ive just got to convince everyone else!

I brought my 10 year old to Comp Park the weekend it opened (and heard complaints about how the Pee Wee track wasn't ready), but she will be vacationing in Canada for the next 5 weeks.
She rode the night poker run last weekend at the TWMC event (near Barstow), but I had to tell her to slow down so I could keep up. :o

f4i:
ive only been riding properly for a couple of months and i havent dared to do the main at elsinore yet. but the main at comp is big fun, lots of tables and stuff to learn on, it was a bit sandy and gave a good workout, but is firming up nice. you can go very fast without having to go large if you know what i mean! they are working hard on the other tracks also so there is loads to go at!
hopefully if i get back into the country on friday, i can organise a ride
later

Elsinore mid-week is very do-able and user friendly. I was just there today for the first time.
The 80 track was being used by riders of all skill levels and there was plenty of room for all. There were, at the most, a dozen riders on as many different types of bikes. 65's, 70's, 80's, 85's, 100's & big wheel bikes. My son took his first turns on a track today on his xr100. It was as good an environment for both first timers and experienced riders as I could have hoped for.
Both the main track and the vet tracks were open so there was plenty of room for beginners and experienced operators to ride.
I'm up for any group ride with the kids but if it does get crowded on weekends, I'd rather ride open spaces on the weekends and the tracks during the week, work willing.
