Eagle Ranch near Collins, Mo is closed to dirt bikes for trail riding except for race days. This is due to a few disrespectful riders that can not stay off trials that were closed with wire and ribbons and decide to go around the closure and make another path, twice. A few bad apples spoils it for all. Sorry, but I'll see you at the race. Jerry

They are allowing us to have our race there on March 2, 2014.
Hillbilly GP will have a race there on December 8, 2013.
I think El Dorado will be open for riding this winter. I will edit this with an answer soon.

This ABSOLUTELY sux!
Really only one of two venues that I make a significant trek for in the off-season (3 hours, no less)...

That is a huge bummer. I always look forward to the winter for the very reason I get to go play ride at Collins. Hopefully one day Eagle Ranch will allow us back out there.

No intention of offending you whatsoever, Jerry... but the quoted statement above implies that that you know WHO the IDIOTS are..... that rode out of bounds on your property.
I cannot speak for the MORE Series, or the HBGP, but I will wade in with guns-a-blazin' on the FM side...., if the individuals involved are with our Series, then by all means feel free to post their numbers..... and WE Will police our own ranks, in a very public way.
If this is somekind of Local (cough, cough!) racer problem, I would ask you to reconsider punishing the ones who treat your facility as an example of Missouri Riding, horse or dirt bike.. as one of the better ones in the Western 3'rd of MO.
