sounds like we got a bunch of guys out there dying to get out in the dirt.

You may think so, but it is not the case. I have tried multiple times to get chicagoland people out with little to no success. If you want, I got a local place we can hit. Nothing big, but it is still fun. I am not far from you either.
 
Good to see some more interest here, let me know when you can get out. I posted in the other topic you started, check it out.

I'm open for the most part on the weekends. So we have 3 people in so far maybe a few more will trickle in and then we can get a date set.
 
Well let's put it this way. Although I saw no postings like private property or no tresspassing, I'm sure that someone could be a jerk about it and call the authorities. It's pretty obvious that others have been there before you. or maybe it was you and Fireteacher that made all those big mudholes! I think thats a pretty "safe" spot. Have you been there recently?
 
Me and Dragon from fjcruiserforums went out there when there was a bunch of ice and snow. What a mess that was, but that place is fine. People wheel there all the time.

Do you know of any other local spot? If so I would love to check it out.

I also might have a line on a spot just over the Wisco. border. It is on private property(woods behind a bunch of houses) that the homeowners ride quads on. My buddy who lives there thinks it would be wide enough for us. I will follow up with him in the next couple weeks and see what the scoop is.

Either way it is time to get out and play!
 
most definetly! I'm always searching for places around here. I've been using Google Earth to search using satellite photography. problem is this. no telling how old said picture is, and cant tell if its posted or not. I just look for tire tracks.

Well hell then, lets go check out my local spot this weekend? jrb, it will be about an hour drive for you to get up here.

Sunday at 10:00 a.m works for me, how about you guys?

I have to do something in the afternoon(maybe around 2:00).

Let me know:biggrin2:

I'm in just give me an address or something to go to. I'm somewhat familiar with Grayslake
 
We can meet at the Walgreens parking lot on the corner of rt. 120 and rt.45 around 9:45. It's about 15 away minutes from there.

Does that work for you?
 
p.m. with cell# sent. I also posted to see if any FJ guys wanted to join us over there on their site.

This might just shape up to be something.

don't be shy Chicagoland folks, these are veerrry mild trails.
 
Well, as I assumed it was pretty muddy out there today.
