The trails in Mongomery aren't a track. Its more or less a water retention area where you can ride for free without any hassle. Its not really that big but will give you a small taste if you need to ride. Where you located?

I live in Montgomery off of Orchard & 30. I knew there had to be somewhere around here to ride around at. Where off of Farnsworth is this spot? Like by the bowling alley area?

rocky glen is weak,salvi ive sent you a heads up about time and place,ill keep you in the loop the cliffs are as close to buffalo as your gonna get,fox valley is good for intermediate riders my kid does well over there, some climbs are short but can be hairy.ill post when im going but i sustained a knee injury last ride and its not healing as id like so if i go its the kiddy track for me,dont worry my buddys are always up for meeting new riders,were going to go back to the badlands once again before the year is up thats a definate DONT MISS so ill keep you posted

Hey spazz. I hit rocky glen on Friday and hated it. I have a thread in general discussion about it. The trails are not good for an 80cc 2 stroke. Was sliding all over the place all day. I want to try Fox Valley. Do they have better terrain? Is it aout the size of rocky glen?

Just got back from Fox Valley. Very muddy in the AM but was ok for the afternoon. It's cheap & close so I like it! Intermed track and trails are pretty good. Prob with my YZ250 though, kept fouling plugs today. I may have gotten 87 octane I was in a hurry to ride. Dunno. Always up for new riders to go with too!

It rained so much yesterday that i'm surprised there was a dry spot to be found. Was there any sand or gravel?

Na no sand/gravel. I go there all the time. The track was in the sun, dries quick.

Rocky glen is boring after 30 mins and dusty as hell, fox vally has a nice track not alot of trails. If you want trail riding go to the cliffs but better be ready for some tough terrain. Can anyone tell me where there are places to ride for free and the cops leave you alone, I had a place in lyons but now the cops just run you out.
