Finally!

[donaldcon]

Finally after a long hunt, my pride and joy has come home.

some of you may remember from WAY back in 2003-2005. I sold my custom built chevette in 05 while in the middle of rebuilding it ( making it bigger)

After this video stopped I bounced my way up to the location of the photo above then broke the tie rod.

Those vids won't play on Facebook. I would like to know more about this place. Looks pretty sweet.

[kyrel69]

Is this place a park or is it private land?

[blazerbrad]

It's private land that the Stillwell Stompers club has access to, outside Coshocton area so a good haul from Cincy. I was there a year or two ago and they had some really nice trails. You do need to be street legal as you need to travel down several paved roads between the different trails.

And search STILLWELL STOMPERS on facebook.

Hands down best trails in ohio if you like rock. Several pieces of property within a few mile sof each other, some highway driving but mostly back roads. 3000 acres total.
