Hello everyone, great info on this site and some of the others as well. I hope to benefit from it as well as being able to offer info and help.
I have been going to some trails on a regular basis up in the Craig Co area. Stone Coal, Potts Mountain....which I see is greatly discussed in forums, and Lignite, which, surprisingly, I have seen much info on. I find it to be just a very entertaining trail. Not much in way of challenges, but because of water erosion, different every time I go. I also frequent some of the roads that go thru Craigs Creek (river at times), it's great place to wash of the Yota after muddin' it up on Lignite....LOL
I have read some things on Bobcat Trail, but I can't find any info as to where it is, and if it's still open. Can anyone help me with that info? Also, I'm interested in finding new trails similar to Potts Mtn, and Lignite. I live in Roanoke, so I'm looking for things within 30-60 minutes away. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

welcome to the forum. because half of bobcat is on private land we typically do not give out directions to the trail, because too many people know where it is that bring bad names to the club, as the entrance is near peoples homes and they dont like to hear loud motors in the middle of the night.

if you would like to ride bobcat come out for a ride with the club, we will be happy to take you out there.

welcome to the area ...

like leach said, we already have tons of idiots giving the 4x4 community a bad name.

come out to the meetings and get to know the club, feel free to ride with us at any time.
