northfacer581 lives around there, too.

Dude - people wheeling in places where it's "illegal, but nobody cares" are why trails close to us everyday. Get permission, then get a bunch of buddies to go out there and pick up trash, fix fences, whatever.

Being also from that area for over 20 + years there are no legal places to wheel unless you know someone with some private land. Other wise Uwharrie is it. It though doesn't open till April 1. If it is to wet they could also delay the opening till a later date. For more info call the ranger station (910) 576-6391. You surely don't want to ride on illegal land, not a good thing for any of us at all ! If it is not posted and you don't know the best thing not to ride there !
