Evergreen Parkway in richmond

Anyone ever drive down it? It's all dirt under power lines and looks pretty cool. Kinda runs parallel to 288 between powhite and lucks lane. Looks like it can be accessed from lucks lane. Google shows it as a road. Iphone maps app doesn't.

cant get there from what i can tell. you might be able to from lucks Ln but its not going to be a legal place to offroad. in the past i have been on one power line road in the area, saw no trespassing signs till i got to the other end with a gate. i will not attempt any of them anymore because one its trespassing and two usually only one way in and one way out if you get caught

Yeah definitely not legal I'm sure. I would not be surprised at all if there is a gate that I couldn't see from street view. I may still check it out, victimless crime. I gotta get this vehicle off road it's been like 2 months of ownership and nothing but pavement.

Just a daystar front leveling kit. Mostly did it for the additional ground clearance up front but it made all the difference in the word in terms of looks.

Nice. I'd offer to give you a hand but I've still got a list of stuff to do to mine that I can't find the time to do. Maintenance mostly, nothing fun.

Haven't driven down it and don't plan to, it has a gate that's usually open but still very likely private land/illegal. One of these days I might just park off the side of lucks and walk down there to see what's going on though. I know it doesn't connect to the evergreen neighborhood.

It's not legal. Chesterfield/Midlothian where my old stomping grounds. Unfortunately I could probably tell you 10 places you shouldn't wheel from my high school days, but the list of legal places is literally non existent unless you head towards the mountains.

Both very good places to ride, but Like i said unless you head towards the mountains the wheeling is not there.

Yep, midlothian/chesterfield was where it was at like 10-15 years ago. I remember going places with my dad. Different story back then I feel like...but now everything's so strict and not worth trying to wheel anywhere since it's not like you'll get a warning if caught. Just not worth it.

Let me know when your group goes somewhere like that. I'd join but I'm not on facebook.

There are a couple small places near me in the Chesterfield/Chester area that Ill slide through every once in a while so the 4R can stretch her legs.
Only one of the four entrances have a "no trespassing" sign, so I never use that entrance :thumb:
Besides, folks have been using these spots to play/dump trash for years. The trails aren't very long, but there are some obstacles and lots o big puddles after a good rain!
