My little girl (9) has gotten fairly proficient on her fifty in our field and the little woods trail on our property. I picked up a YZF to ride with her and would like to take her somewhere with new scenery to keep her interest level up. My question is; What are my options besides URE? I don't know if I am comfortable with her meeting oncoming trucks just yet. I may be overthinking it and just need to load up and go but don't want to if somebody has any other ideas.

It's a haul (18576 McGirts Bridge Rd Laurinburg, NC 28352), but Outback Motorsports Complex | outbackmsc.com is where I took my kids to learn. Sandy, and forgiving on the knees and hips when they fall.

They graduated to Brushy mountain

I tried URE when they were advanced enough from Brushy, but it scared the hell out of them.
 
Well my weekend plans to go to Outback were just shot down. She tripped over the dog in the back yard.:shaking:

Dang, that is a bummer!
 
Dang that sucks, come on down to Busco it's like 30 mins from the house
 
Durhamtown is a haul, but great trails and all 1 way. Before I had kids I went twice a year. Now no times a year.... Good family atmosphere.
 
Dang that sucks, but she needs some milk!
I have access to some private woods trails and a motocross track in Cabarrus county (just north of Charlotte-Meck). Pm me if yall ever head down this way
 
Get her better and go to Brushy Mt. Motorsports in Alexander County.
Brown Mt. In my opinion is either one big rut or two big ruts pending trail unless you get well off the main loops. Not much fun for younger riders. The traffic is also poorly regulated, just like UNF on main drags. Big mix of go fast and over ridding go faster folks. Folks on the edge of a major wreck on two ways.
Also any trail system in the middle of the week is safer. Less traffic, and mostly a talented riding population instead of weekend idiots.
 
I ain't got much of nothing for trails, but there is a couple patches of woods and some open pasture land out behind the house your welcome to ride in. Nothing really challenging.

Rode Outback ATV today with some friends, that's a nice park! Thanks for the heads up on that one.

Once I rode it to scope it out, I felt it was PERFECT for my kids to learn. plenty of trails, FLAT and NO ROCKS to intimidate them. it helped lot!! the sand made for soft landings and also helped them develope better balancing skills. lots of falls but it made them much stronger riders and fear falling less...because let's face it, if you're you're riding a dirt bike and don't fall, you're not having enough fun
 
haha that's a fact, we all ate sand at some point yesterday. I told her about Outback and she is excited to go when she gets her cast removed. Those guys on the big quads in the pond were insane out there, I had never seen that in person.
 
Just watch some of those small "puddles"

Those 4 wheelers wallow out the holes and some can be a few FEET deep
 
A bunch of the normal places have been talked about.

Here are some more to look into.
Twin Oaks in Asheboro
AAA farms in Yadkinville
PlayDirt MX in Cameron
Midway Arenacross in Thomasville
Outdoorsman Park in Martinsville, VA
Elkhorn Lake in Java, VA
