Its called "PICK-A-PART" and its located between the Spotsylvania and Thornburg exits off 95 on RT1. BRIGHT YELLOW Building. Can't miss it,.....If your coming from Northern VA down 95 get off at the Spotsylvania exit and take RT1 South and it will be on your Left hand side. Also The Spotsylvania exit is the next exit past the RT3 "Central Park" Fredericksburg Exit.

Yep, I got over running mud and deep water about 30 years ago when I was in high school. Rocks are more fun, less damage if you know how to pick a line.

You can go to Crozet VA, RCPFA, its near Charlottsville. I've wheeled there but I'm not a member. I have Potts Mountain in my back yard so no need to drive 2.5 hours to wheel.

Potts? Yep, been through there at least 75 times in my life, maybe more! I've run that mountain since the 80's.

I only run it two or three times a year now, just trying to do my part to tread lightly.

I was just up there two week ago when our club did our trail clean-up run.

You can run it stock as long as you have skid plates(tank/T-case), rocker protection and recovery points front and rear. You will sustain body damage, I can guarantee that!

Yep, but I've seen built rigs break like matchsticks and stock rigs roll right through the trail. Its all about the line you take, the spotter you have and how you use the skinny pedal.
