It has a couple big table tops and some other jumps. Its a pretty sweet track but i guess people were complaining about noise and trying to shut it down. Once i drove all the way out there and we couldn't ride because they said they only had "special" practice days. Is this track still running?[/quote]<P>Hello, My name is Nikolas Arsenault, I live right next to the Dresden track (The log cabin) and it is owned by my grandfather. Yes the track is still running. Its always open to anyone who wishes to ride on it. I don't know where the special practice days came from. There was a guy in buisness with my grandfather who said/ wrote stupid **** like that when it wasn't true (Which is why hes not around anymore). But like i said anyone may ride on the track. The track is kinda ruff though, its been awhile since anyone i think has fixed the track up. Rocks are a problem but like someone mentioned before as long as people help pick up some rocks while they are there its not to bad. The people who are complaining about noise are reall jers to begin with lol. We built sound barriers so it deffens most of the noise and alot of people told us its not as noisey as it use to be. But anyways just thought i'd clear that up.</P><P>Happy Riding.Tue, 18 Sep 2007 19:06:32 GMTNikhttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxI know a good place to ride its in jay, its a prity fun track. It gets kids in the feelling of jumping because what kid likes to go slow on a strait away. I derently dont. At this track theres a strait away then a table top. every time my dad says i go faster and i can feel it there are a couple of dobles that i can do in 3 gear on my 150. </P><P>E-mail <A href="mailto:Skateboardolie@hotmail.com">Skateboardolie@hotmail.com</A>Sun, 05 Aug 2007 09:07:15 GMTJ True the Redrider 160 manhttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxBruce...</P><P>I'm going to give you a call today, we would like to swing over and just check out your track (no riding today, just walk it).

There are alot of pits and a "track" in the biggest one the only good jumps are 2 kickers and a set of doubles but its still a blast.Fri, 11 May 2007 14:12:21 GMT2_stroke_addicthttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxThe practice track in Leeds is open, but only on Wednesdays. Rt 202 to Leeds, turn onto 106, go 2-3 miles turn right (dont make a sharp right on Bog Rd) onto Bishop Hill Rd, go .7 miles second driveway after road turns to dirt.</P><P>Track is sandy loam, very dusty when dry. It's also a physically demanding track. Mike.Tue, 08 May 2007 08:59:09 GMTmxmike27http://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxNot to discourage you but this is a very rough track with lots of rocks and would be very challenging for a new rider on a 50. I try to go out and prctice here acouple times a month. Dont forget to help pick some rocks while you are out there. :D<br><br> MattSat, 07 Apr 2007 22:06:23 GMTheatmakerhttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxBruce! Thank you.

And we definately don't have to use a practice track... I'd be happy with someone's field! lolTue, 27 Mar 2007 07:49:22 GMTmyboyzmxhttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxI found a couple spots in leeds that I got permission to ride with my son at. They are right off 202, and I just asked the owner one day when he was in the pit..... he just asked that I be respectful of his property. The best part is the trials that lead to other pits in the area... and I can park at the first one without being harassed. It isnt a "track", but there are jumps, and differing terrain to rip around on.Mon, 26 Mar 2007 22:05:45 GMTSATAN OF SANDhttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxWe are still looking for a practice track to use! At this point we will drive a couple of hours if we need too. My sons are 4 and 5 years old. They ride a little 50cc ATV and a 90cc ATV and they are wanting to try the Honda 50cc dirtbike that we have. My oldest raced at Skowhegan last year (mini ATV, 3rd overall for the season) and it will be my youngest first year riding.<P>So anyone have a practice track we could use off and on during the race season? Again, driving an hour or two is no biggie, if we could stay for at least a few hours to practice.</P><P>thank you!Sat, 24 Mar 2007 21:08:11 GMTmyboyzmxhttp://www.mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic506-7-1.aspxyeah.. that's what I'm hoping for.

We live in the midcoast area (Friendship). My sons ride mini ATV's. Although Rylee is going to also try a bike this year.</P><P>Anyone know of a place we could go in the MidCoast area? I would like to get them somewhere weekly once practice season starts. They race at Skowhegan, but it's just too far to drive every week for practice. We really need somewhere closer to home.</P><P>:)Wed, 21 Feb 2007 06:00:53 GMTmyboyzmx
