Offroading near Asheville, NC

[Flatattack]

The family and I will be in Asheville Jan. 17-21. Are there any locals in the area wishing to do a little trail riding?

you should hit Gulches Offroad Park. Near Greenville, SC.

I am about an hour and a half away from Ashville and honestly there isn't a whole lot in that area. The closest to that are is a little west to a forest rd named Hurrican Creek, it is nothing to extreme but not just a dirt road either.

If youre looking for more challenge or maybe even extreme challenge then check this event out, It is in Marion NC just 30 mins east on I40

I would try and do Hurricane Creek road again. It was snowed and iced out the first time I tried it. If I can I could get at least one more to go too.

Well I will be there, I am a Florida boy so wheeling on snow and ice will be a new experience for me. Really hoping to to hit a trail while I'm in town. There appears to be a ride in Marion, NC on the 18th that I may give a shot. But if you or a group want to ride Hurricane Creek that could be fun.

I've been to the Flats too. Some trails are narly. If it's wet, it a ice rink but that is pretty much anywhere with red clay. I am a FL boy too but have done plenty of snow wheeling. My ex living in JAX beach so I am familiar with your area and wheeling. Worst case google Hurricane Creek road and down load some maps. The Pisgah forest is even just a nice dirt road drive up. Last year at Pisgah:

We have had very little snow in the area yet this year, I think Ashville has only had a dusting or so. I am sure hoping for it though, I feel like were the only part of the country that hasn't gotten our share yet this year.

I've been watch a lot of videos from Hurricane Creek. It looks like a fun trail. Anyone interested in riding Hurricane on the 18th.

Well I'm going to attempt Hurricane Creek on the 18th.

Where bouts in Pisgah please? I go up there all the time. Mostly on Brevard side.

Bump, there are two of us so far planning to ride on the 18th. Hurricane Creek seems to be the destination. Anyone else??

 

[Flatattack]

Had an awesome time riding Hurricane Creek. It was covered in snow which made it that more excited for a Florida boy. Got a couple pictures and a GoPro video that I'll have to edit and post.

Cool! Sorry I couldn't make it. Too much work plus my front drive shaft took a dump on me this week. I had to take it out. Glad you had a great time.
