Is there something I'm missing here? Looking at their website which reads:

"Off-Road Vehicles
The former Green Ridge ORV is permanently closed. "

And then provides a link to St. John's Rock...

that is correct. I heard that the public road parts of the loop are still open and will be checking that out. The plan is to ride the public roads which are gravel. Been a long time since we've done that. Might even do a creek crossing if the creek is low enough

the operative word in the thread title is "easy" :thumbup:

Too anyone thinking about tagging along to ride. We can meet just off the highway at the 15 Mile Creek exit. At 9-9:15.

I think its just my van and Kirk coming out. If anyone else is coming please let me know so we can wait for you. Not 100% sure where we will set up camp for the day.

We had a good ride today. Thanks for leading, Phil!

I thought this would be a poor substitute for a regular off road ride but I was wrong. It's different but still pretty fun. I kind of regret wearing the gear I normally wear to commute in though. I'm going to have to put the gear back on tomorrow and have my wife hose me down. I'll wear other stuff next time around. It was nice being able to turn the heat on for the first few miles with the group...

This was the first time I've done something other than riding on the road with the wr250x. It worked well. I'll have to see how it does with the 90/10 tires I've got sitting on the shelf for something a bit more off road than we did today.
