Best MX Track in Ohio

[owndjoo]

Almost impossible to have the best track AND be open to the public.......IMHO. If any of you thought we were good in the last 8 years, then you haven't lived.

Plenty of great tracks in SoCal that are open to the public, almost daily. Obviously a different climate of riders and demand, but there’s plenty of great national caliber tracks that are open to the public.

Agree about the ooooold BC layouts. Fantastic bitd, the difficulty with keeping things fun and safe for such a wide swath of riders and skill levels to do both practice days and have a high level race layout is big.

My son likes them all as long as he can ride. He rode Malvern a lot growing up, and when Rodgers would change up the track he would come off complaining about it. So one day I found this binky on the ground and kept it for the next time he started complaining about a track being changed. Needless to say he doesn’t complain anymore! Lol. I tell him to adapt to the changes and have fun.

My point is that when you are dealing with the safety of the public, and trying balance things, you hold back. Trust me this happens. That's all.

Action Sports nature terrain track. Was the best MX track the state has ever had. Hands down. I’m sure it’s still there... just saying

I'll second this one. If they still had races there, I would still race some mx.

There aren’t many tracks I’ve been to that I didn’t like. I might not have been a fan of a certain section, but that’s probably do to my skill level. All these guys work hard. Now there are times I’ve been to a track and it’s been a mess then went back 2 weeks later and it’s primo.

I love Malvern, Apple, MX Acres and I used to love Indian mound sand.

Even though Briarcliff needs a major track remodel it’s by far the best. The prep is top notch no matter what time of year its

Miss the mound too, makes me sad to pass by that spot to head north and see what it is now.

I know this supposed to be current, but I still think scenic was the best track to hit Ohio. At least it had the most feel of a National track. Now we don’t need to talk about the driveway and the wind and everything else. But just the track when it started with all the dirt still in place was Epic

I will never give up my dream of Dirt world coming back!!! Malvern of course on point for 30 years !!! Apple cabin been going for 25years...beans always sick! Any track that can go for 25/30 years in Ohio is doing something right!!!!! Especially if Smith rides there and gives his opinions!!!! Haha

What's the scoop on Grears? I haven't been there yet but I have heard a lot of good reviews from people that know moto. Do they want to race? Anyone reached out?

What tracks are appealing and available has changed and evolved with the sport.
I also believe it changes with your skill, capability and position in life.
What was hot 10 years ago is not today. What’s hot today will not be 10 years from now.

Thankfully!!!

My choices would be Mid-Ohio and Honda Hills.
I was at the ripe age, my skill was peeking and life revolved around MX.
Racing on those two tracks was the epitome of MX at the time.

Spring valley. It just needs a good disc and some acerbis track markers.

Wonder what the new Chilitown will be like?

Kilbarger's.... where we hold our schools..... this post isn't as a selling point just honest opinion. especially back in the day with both hillsides. Back in the day I lived for Kenworthy's too.

But just a huge thanks to all the track owners that put the time in on prep and effort you know. good riding spots are hard to find nowadays when I was growing up training there were so many good tracks and a ton of good private tracks.... few and far between today.

Tv lands GP course.....that hasn’t happened in two years.

Moto. Some woods. Grass. Freestyle ramps rocks. Tires. 6x6’s....cool bizarre obstacles. Fun race.

I agree. Wild Wilderness was my favorite track of all time.

Puscheta Creek has been pretty good this year. Wouldn't say it was the best but certainly a great place to ride to change things up. Greer's is fun but can be a little one lined.

Pits are on point, but I bet Scott will build a good track
