I am looking for some info on the trails in or around Monroe, WI. Looking for place to stay and should we go there? We have been in Black River Falls area a few times and had a good time. If anyone can help it would be great. Thanks Jim

Trail Side Cabins in Darlington looked like a cool place to stay we might do that one next time. We normally stay at the super 8 in Monroe. Fullers Nixon House in Gratiot is also a nice place to stay right on the trail. For other places try this http://www.tricountytrails.com/lodging_camping.iml?near=1


And welcome to Rubberdown! Where in Central IL are you?

I have pictures of atleats one of the Monroe rides in my sig. As far as the trails there ok and rather easy and smooth on the Tri-County ones the Fayette trails are a bit more challenging but nor difficult. The Fayette trails are kind of cool because they take you through alot of farm fields with cows and some nice winding trails. The last time we went up we went with BigT aka Tim and 200 miles and didn't even hit the Fayette trails.

And I very sorry your friends with Mark.
















Just kidding.

You taught me well Jim!!! Sorry I got carried away with all of the mods I've done to my bike and can't help you out in further safety courses....
Unless the ATVSI wants to teach people how NOT to stand their bikes up on their asses!

I am trying to find the Trail Side Cabins in Darlington WI. Do you have any info on this place? Still checking this area out. Still do not know if we want to go to this area or go back to Black River Falls area. What would you do?

The trail side cabins is through the same guy who rents atvs in Darlington. I haven't been to Black river falls yet but Monroe is a little over an hour drive for me so its close thats why I've been twice and would like to do a group ride there this summer. But I would be open to the same ride in Black River Falls.
