I FOUND DIRT BIKE HEAVEN AT DURHAMTOWN GA; 6,800 ACRES, 16 TRACKS + 150 MILES OF TRAILS & MUCH MORE!

[@mstanton1ful]

Thank you for helping me convince my wife to go there with me. Have been trying too get a family vacation here for years.

[@KaplanCycles]

Any time!

[@seather863]

Amazing Offroad Park, thanks for sharing Sr.

[@ThePurePlayaz]

On my life bucket list trips... Thanks Ken for showing light on it. Looks like a amazing place that needs to stick around!

[@KaplanCycles]

You bet!

[@TNTMOTO]

This type of thing should exist everywhere no matter what country or continent you live on.

[@buckyoc5988]

Erik is the man use to ride his private tack every weekend, one of the best dudes to ever put a leg over a dirt bike. Glad to see him featured in this video

[@americanstructuresii5912]

We are members and been riding there for 20+ years. I still find trails I have never been down. The trails and tracks are the best they have ever been right now. It's well worth the trip!

[@WerkToday]

Anytime you can get a grown man to start talkin like a eight-year-old boy talking about something very exciting.. is always a good thing!! SR. IS so excited he's just can't slow down..🎉🎉 I totally see him buying 10,000 acres in Georgia is making a better track..))Kaplan world ())

[@2strokeaddict830]

Mind boggling...what a amazing place... wish i lived in the US... would be awesome to see the 97' Cr500 brought to dirt Bike Heaven, get some footage of the 500 ripping some of the tracks?

[@KaplanCycles]

Maybe one day!

[@ar2043]

I have just added this to my bucket list in life… To see your enthusiasm and joy as you cover just a tiny portion of the property brings me so much happiness. You are literally as giddy as a school kid in a candy store. And it is so awesome to see you so happy. And you're right… This place does seem like it must be an actual "heaven right here on earth"!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us Ken and for your passion for the sport and locations of places to enjoy said sport!!!!! And as always… "God bless America"! 🇺🇸

[@KaplanCycles]

Thank you!!

[@ar2043]

🙏

[@chrisbartlett708]

I’ve been going there for years with my sons, one of my sons and I was just there last weekend. We love the single tracks and my oldest son loves the tracks, at 52 years of age I don’t do the tracks much anymore

[@tonyversus9787]

A tear to my eye! What an incredible place. I need to find some partners and do this in Ohio and add snowmobiling!

[@djcombs5553]

Definitely a fun place to camp and ride , single track and woods and national tracks , love it after new owner

[@kalanics]

Just left there Saturday after my son raced the bomber track on his 65cc. He got 1st place in 65cc open and got 2nd place 65cc 7-9.

[@jeffkeni]

Thanks for the detailed tour, Ken! I first learned of this place a few months ago watching a video on Dirty Motorcycle Vagabond's channel. (He's a motorcycle nomad full time on the road). I was blown away! Paradise!

[@keeptwowheelsdown]

My favorite place to ride dirt is the Hatfield Mccoy trailheads. I'm going to try this place. Looks like a blast! Thanks for the destination location! Awesome video brother

[@therealjd1503]

I can definitely understand your excitement. That place is epic.

[@kennethanderson2273]

First time going to Durham town was 2003. Grew up in north Atlanta. Took my family of four many many times there. Even spent thanksgiving day with a great buffet for the dinner. Never gets old. Unbelievable place it is. Been there probably 20 / 30 times, love that place 😊

[@KaplanCycles]

Thanks for sharing

[@Yortwash]

Thanksgiving weekend is their busiest & best event of the year, plenty of food, music, tracks, trails, riding & racing!

[@jnorth5689]

I don't know how I've never heard of this magical land.

[@krieger6966]

Wow ..the drool factor is off the charts🤤..thanks for sharing Ken ...god bless America 🇺🇸FTW

[@vinnyvinson]

Beautiful country. Nice trees 🌲

[@paulawestcott7228]

Yes most awesome presentation Ken SR. Yes I it's on list to do this year. Total Dirt Nation Disneyland for me! Thanks a mil for sharing this video. Mike business its going to go mega up! Ken Sr. Always making it a wiw win for all. God Bless him and his family God bless America!❤😊

[@KaplanCycles]

You bet

[@michaelrichards5875]

We have been going to Durhamtown since my son was 10 years old he is 26 now. Great place to camp and ride. Another great place to ride is Highland Park northwest of Atlanta not as flat as Durhamtown more mountainous geared more towards bikes. Both great places to spend a weekend.

[@cyclerider5652]

OK, I changed my mind. I don't want to stay there a week. I want to live there. Lol. Thanks for sharing!! We need more places to ride!!!! Others need to follow suit and open parks like this.

[@jg2wheels]

You should check out Highland MX Park as well, then when you head north, Windrock Off-road Park is 72,000 acres with trails for dirt bikes, SxS, Jeep, and even mountain bikes.

[@keeptwowheelsdown]

How did I miss this place?? I've rode a ton in Georgia. The riding in Georgia is one of my favorite places to run. Ride till the heat is killing you. Pull up to one of the many lakes, do some cliff diving. Get back on your bike nice and cool! Bottom of the smokies rock

[@delkellarjr.3116]

WOW BROTHER THAT'S INCREDIBLE. DEFINITELY ON MY BUCKET LIST TO MAKE IT DOWN THERE. ALWAYS LIKE THE WAY YOU EXPLAIN THINGS AND HOW EXCITED YOU GET JUST LIKE WHEN WE WERE KIDS SEEING AND RIDING OUR DIRT BIKES AND THREE WHEELERS . I STARTED AT THE AGE OF 6 AND 48 YEARS OLD NOW AND STILL GET SUPER STOKED ABOUT BIKES LOVE IT.

[@calephillips-pu4kq]

This is great. I grew up at Durham Town with the owners son. Good people and one awesome place.

[@jordanblair5410]

Georgia must have some different insurance laws, because anywhere else today it would take big money to pay the liability insurance for such a huge place with so many ways and places to get hurt or worse. It's a miracle that it exists -- thanks for opening our eyes to this dirt bike disneyland, it's like going back in time!

[@jamesking4225]

You sign your life away on a waiver

[@LastCall534]

They were sued a few years ago. Kid was riding one of the tracks, crashed and hit the end of a culvert, cut his leg off if I remember correctly or it had to be amputated. Settled the lawsuit for around a million dollars. Bankrupted them at the time, didn't figure they'd ever reopen, but they brought in some investors or sold part ownership, can't remember. I don't think the kid had signed an insurance waiver.

[@rip.n.Rob.61]

Thanks for sharing that Ken I live in Florida and I had no idea that place existed I'm definitely going to plan a three-day trip with my wife.😊

[@mrrandy1]

Kap, this is like Field of Dreams for us riders. I must get down there soon.

[@jeffgarner1448]

Going to get me a drz 400 and I'm definitely going here! I'm 53 years old and I'm as excited as a kid to go here!

[@mxbeanz1206]

I've always said I wanna move to Georgia. Now I have a real good reason 🎉

[@keithtarrier4558]

HOLY COW!!!! I live in Tokyo... and so miss my bike in Australia... but damn!!! I GOTTA fly to Hot-lanta and get to that place and rent a bike!! WOW... sounds awesome!!

[@eddieloftis2414]

Wednesday 3/29/23 We ride there a lot!! I’m from Anderson SC. There’s nowhere close to us to ride. We always go to D- town!! Lots of fun for everyone. My daughter he’s grown up riding with me there!!!! She’s now 18 and we’ll be there sooooon!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 TCB FOREVER

[@paulfleming4710]

Very cool!...we have crooms in florida. Its no where as nice as the place you found.

[@sonnyseabury4051]

You described it perfectly, brother...Dirtbike Heaven. I've never known about a place like that existing in my entire life.

[@worldssickestmedia2713]

You're at my home track. Have a blast. It's paradise. Oh. And btw. MX3 is where it's at. It's a motocross track in the woods that you'll click 6th gear on numerous times. Hauling azzzz

[@AOL0321]

Way cool! Great video! Wonder if they allow mtn. bikes too?

[@KaplanCycles]

I think so!

[@richardaffonso]

Wow! Thank you. This is on my bucket list. Great video.

[@KaplanCycles]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@rustyhooks9482]

Definitely will be making a trip down there in the near future!!! Thanks for bringing this to my attention!!!

[@KaplanCycles]

Have fun!

[@mikehenry7848]

Cool place. It's nice to know about places near by. Well, on the same side of the country at least.

[@100pyatt]

This place looks so incredible it's now on my destination list !! 🔥🔥🏆🏆🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@JW-zs1pz]

Good morning, Mr. Kaplan this track reminds me of Saddleback Park in CA. Race tract, trails for miles. Lov this kind of place!!!! Carlsbad raceway is another place that was juice for the same thing. We are simpatico brother. Lov this stuff!!

[@charlesmiller7139]

Now if someone asked me to describe heaven, I could. That's just insanely awesome! Definately gonna have to load up and make the trek. Thanks for sharing hope in today's crazy crazy World.

[@RagdollRacingInc]

Hi ken yes that is the motorcycle Mecca 💯 percent bar none in the world thanks for showing us this gem definitely on the bucket list for me

[@jaytomson7052]

This is shocking! You found a jewel, we've got the tools!

[@KaplanCycles]

I know, right?

[@B.LanglaisCT203]

Omg I’m in love I can’t even imagine the feeling pulling up to this place I will be making this a definite trip in the near future from Ct where we have legit no legal places to ride this looks like heaven !!

[@townsendYXZ]

You know I've heard of this place but I didn't realize it was this. I'm so glad I live in Western NC. This isn't far from me.

[@PSBEadventures]

Your down in our neck of the woods now! Been riding down there for many years!!

[@holeshotinspectionllc2412]

Awesome facility, love it🤙

[@williamcarr1148]

Dude,thanx for the info. You wouldn't believe wild Nevada riding ATVs. Nature at its best on a 250😊

[@williamcarr1148]

WoW,,after watching this,,,what a thought out for the hard racers or the soft riders here in mind. Yes,, love the nature there,very cool

[@petercorrigan8374]

Count me in. I'm planning a trip from NJ to Go soon!!!!!!!

[@Yortwash]

Glad you found the place, my buds & I go all the time being we live in the Atlanta area. BRAAP!!!

[@raymondsiewert2720]

All l have to say is WOW 😮😊 How can they afford to maintain that place ?

[@dustin9035]

Son and I go usually twice a year from Florida. It rocks.

[@MEQUPWER]

[@victorgailums6784]

Not taking anything away from this place. Looks like a great time. But, you have to take a trip to Brushy Mtn in Taylorsville NC. That place is dirt bike heaven. Everything from moderatly easy dirt bike/quad trails to hard enduro.

[@aspire2inspire732]

Too bad Western Colorado is so far away, otherwise we'd just zip over there every weekend & enjoy the resort in it's entirety! It looks incredible!! (Where we live is pretty glorious for riding too, but the winters are cold & long)

[@holeshotinspectionllc2412]

I was thinking the same thing, Western Slope for us, but it would be cool to go back east 🤙

[@gregpaszt4671]

Been riding there for years I was the same way talking telling people about it is awesome.

[@Steve-jw6cr]

I will be there one day. Right after i visit your museum, lets get it happening!

[@jasonbuncich4969]

I was just there on 3/15/23! Love that place!

[@al09wa]

Please make a video on wind rock ohv tn as well if your gonna cover great places in the south, super fun place with beautiful views.

[@steveharris6916]

It’s not the speed that kills, it’s that sudden stop 🌲🌲🌲🌲

[@markmavracicsr.7193]

So awesome 👌

[@andrewscott80]

Wish we had this here in the city of Durham in the UK

[@dodgybodger3124]

Wish we had it in the peak district 😉👍

[@davegilbert1866]

[@xcarolcandyx5952]

Omg I need to go there, wow heaven 🔥🔥🔥

[@Bobby8451]

Tbe MX4 track was my favorite when me and buds used to go back in 2005

[@davidefland1985]

Christine that was a good movie. 58 Belvidere

[@Dante_S550_Turbo]

I just looked at houses near by for 2 hrs 😅

[@chrismicallef1276]

Three hours west of Durhamtown is Highland Park Resort which is also awesome!!

[@Pat-RickSmith]

Well Kap I have some exciting ideas for the Kaplan America brand. Yes sir hear me out. I think we can introduce the Kaplan America action figurże . With long hair and fuzzy pork chops of course . Think our era GI Joe with the fuzzy head . Of course they would come in the 18" display models or 11" live action models. The mini replica dirt bikes . The Iconic CR 500 with realistic two stroke sound . For Halloween the kids or us adults could dress up like you . The cape the stick on fuzzy pork chops bandana. Hey they could sell them at the pro shop. There in MX Mecca.

[@KaplanCycles]

Lol love it! Lets gooo!

[@Pat-RickSmith]

@@KaplanCycles Rite on brother . Be safe

[@charlesshort4287]

Eric in the side by side, there is a metal hanger for a CB or some type of radio!, right above his head, doesn't look to safe,

[@DirtRaider450]

The place is a great time.

[@kenlane8484]

looks like all hard packed and when wet that red slime mud...would be great if it was same as southwick....dirt, but still cool....north jacksonville mx is a great track same color but he mixed sand in with red clay

[@RagdollRacingInc]

Rally cars should go there!!!

[@LeacherFilms]

Where I learned how to jump a dirt bike the holy lands 🙌🏽
