[QUOTE="BustedKnucklefilms, post: 652242, member: 875"] A little information on the park. BKORP Busted Knuckle Off Road Park (BKORP) is a brand new park, located right off Highway 117 just outside downtown Stevenson, Alabama. 600+ acres of hardwood mountainsides and an open valley create a picturesque landscape that is prime for the off road enthusiast. The terrain features wide open flat land for camping and parking, rocky knolls for crawling, all the way to the most extreme hill climbs anywhere. ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes, 4x4s, rock bouncers, and rail buggies are all welcome. In other words, there is something here for everyone! **RULES POSTED BELOW** Layout The entrance to BKORP is right off Highway 117. No tight or rough back roads to traverse here. A gravel road bed snakes through the open valley, which is central to the property lines. No worries about big trucks or long trailers, a 53’ semi truck would have no problems getting in or out of the park. Just off the main road are large, open fields that will be available for camping and parking. A large shed stands towards the back of the property that will serve as a “common area” with picnic tables for hanging out, and food and merchandise vendors setup about the perimeter on event weekends. The property sits in a, sort of, “bowl,” open on one end like a horseshoe. The trail system covers, essentially, 3 different mountainsides, with the property lines running near the peaks of each mountain. This creates a network of trails conducive to larger crowds. With the campground and parking areas in the bottom of the valley and the trails running about the 3 mountainsides, there are multiple entrances and exits into the trail system. No single “main road” to get backed up on ride days. Also, if you lose your way, all you need to do is go downhill to end up back at the campground. The trail system consists of easy roads that travel to the furthest corners of the property. So anyone with a basic off road vehicle will be able to ride to any area of the park. Networking into these roads will be trails from mild to wild. The park features a large amount of elevation as well as tons of exposed rock. This is a rock crawlers paradise! What’s Going On Now? Currently, we are hard at work putting a trail system in place. We’ve rented a bulldozer to push some perimeter trails and roads, and also to groom some existing road beds. We will then make trails connecting to these roads. Our first open date is April 28-30, 2017 (check our schedule for more information). There will be a race going on Friday and Saturday, but the park will be open for riding all 3 days. We’re getting as much as we can in place, but please keep in mind, the park will not be a finished product. We plan to have a food vendor on site for the weekend, as well as port-o-johns setup.

Future Plans Again, this is a BRAND NEW off road park, and we are starting from scratch. We have a lot of plans for the future, but unfortunately, we can’t accomplish them all immediately. We ask that you bear with us while we work to make BKORP the epitome of off road parks! Some of the possible future plans include: Widen the main entrance road to 2 lane (currently 1 lane) Construct a bath house with toilets, showers, and sinks Setup some sort of repair station with tools to make basic repairs on site UTV short course track Pit bike track RC car track Possible RV hookups (power/water) This is not a conclusive list, just an idea of our vision for the park.
