Kip,
If you are in Marion, then you are probably not to far from the Badlands in Attica.  Is there some decent riding there?  Is it inundated with ATVs on weekends?
Thanks!

 

[Kip Kern]

I can't honestly say,  I haven't been there as of yet.  We do most of our riding at a place called "Barney's"  he has been letting folks ride on his tracks for about 40 years.  Not far from Upland, IN

 

[Mike Lenz]

The Badlands is "BAD". Better bring a long travel bike there, its rough! All deep wooped sand. There are normally about 500 ATV's there on weekends!

I grew up about twenty miles from Attica,Ind.and there was no one interested in offroad riding (late 60's early 70's) didn't discover that til I moved to Terre Haute.I haven't lived in Indiana in thirty years, is there still a  group called Terre Haute Competition riders? I was a founding member of that group and help build both M/X tracks north of town. Any Hoosiers remember this? I rode a Maico for Lake's in West Terre Haute.Penton's were a rare sight but one showed up ocassionaly.

I'am not sure of the rider but I feel I know that bike r e a l well!  Something about the frame being bent in the middle, the pipe being totally destroyed, the forks "shot" and the rest questionable.  And only having 3 months to totally restore it!

 

[Kip Kern]

Wow, no coffee yet.  The above belongs in the "guess the rider" contest!

 

[Mick Milakovic]

fblt1:  the competition riders no longer exist, sorry to say.  I've lived in Indiana all my life and now reside outside Lafayette.  I remember a guy named Brad Lake on a Maico that nobody could touch there.  I went to school at ISU and probably spent more time at the track and the strip mines riding than studying!
