Since everyone is shooing me away from motorcycles, I'm entertaining the thought of getting a dirtbike to play around with.

Where in Central, or really any part of Jersey are there places to ride?

When I was a kid there were so many places nearby but so much has been built up over the years.

Get yourself a Dual Sport, a lot more places to go when the bike is plated with a headlight. I'll ask my brother in law later today, but he goes out a lot in south Jersey and Pennsylvania.

North jersey has some spots....illegal of course but there are places to ride due to over abundace of woods. Was just out in the snow, man thats a blast in the trails.

Legally? Englishtown. Atco closed their track last year. There is the ORV Park in South Jersey, wasn't a fan. But I like riding on a track, that's probably why I didn't like it

I usually head up to the PA off road park near camelback. If you get a bike and want to go riding, shoot me a PM. I'm always looking for people to go with.

We ride out in Treverton PA. Also, take weekend trips out past lock haven, PA to a legal ATV state park. Jersey is kind of a pain to find places to ride. Even wharton forrest you get hassled.

If you stay on the trails and the bikes are legal then you should be fine in Wharton (or any other state park). AFAIK there is no public wooded area in NJ where it is legal to ride a non-street legal dirtbike, and only a small handful of legal tracks / recreation areas.

Even still every ranger will stop you to check your paperwork.
