Permission
to
Ride
A birth
certificate for all minor children is
required (anyone under age 18).
The minor's birth certificate MUST show BOTH
birth parents' names.
Please furnish
a photocopy of both birth parents' drivers
licenses. If only one parent accompanies the
minor child to the BMMS Park, then the
absent parent MUST sign the Minor
Release
Form and have their signature
notarized. Otherwise, the minor child WILL
NOT be permitted to use the Park's
trails. There are NO
EXCEPTIONS to this rule. If one Parent
is deceased we need a copy of the Death
Certificate.
Please make
sure that you review your birth certificate
to ensure the required information is
listed. If you have any questions regarding
a minor child being able to ride, please
call the Park at (828) 635-7766 and we will
do our best to answer your questions.
The birth
certificate photocopy and minor release form
for child riders will be held on site for 12
months.

If you have the
skills then we have the thrills. If you like
to ride twisting, turning, climbing,
descending, challenging trails that seem to go
on forever then Brushy Mountain is the place
for you. You can take the long trail number
one and ride for 25.5 miles straight through
or you can take one of many return trails and
head back early to the parking lot.
If you
are on two wheels and you have the skills and
like tough, challenging, single track trails
that will test your abilities we have over 25
miles of them. Over 40 miles of single track
are planned for Brushy Mountain and we are
adding to it all the time.
So when you get bored from just turning left
and right and are looking for something more
then "Come Ride the Mountain."

Vehicle
Retrieval Charges
Sometimes vehicles get
stranded and need help getting back to
home base. It happens. BMMS
offers a vehicle retrieval service for
stuck rides at the park. However,
due to the ever increasing cost of
business, Brushy Mountain Motor Sports
Park has found it necessary to start
charging for the retrieval of bikes, ATVs
and side-by-side vehicles.
The
breakdown for vehicle retrieval charges is:
$25.00 dirt bike
$35.00 atv-sport or utility quad
$50.00 side by side
No
retrieval will be done after normal park
hours.
Attention ATV
Riders!
- Tire Notice
-
BMMS Park will
no longer allow aggressive, deep tread tires
to be used at the Park. These tires
can best be described as Swamper,
Mudder, Paddle, or Agricultural Type Tractor
tires. We do this in the best interest of
our trails and the majority of our riders.
We are sorry if this impacts you. If you
have any of the above type tires, please
make sure to measure your tire height BEFORE
coming to the park to ride. Maximum
allowed tire tread height on ATVs is 3/4 of
an inch.

Weather Alert!
Bad Weather Policy-- Even if the current weather
conditions are good, the Park may still be
closed following heavy rain or snow. If the
trails are still too wet or muddy to ride, the
Park will NOT be open to riders. To ensure
that the Park is open, please call the Park at
(828) 635-7766 to verify that the Park is open
for riders. You can also join our
mailing list to receive email updates on park
closings. (See sidebar at left.)
Please Note: After 8:30 a.m., if your call is not answered or
returned within 15 minutes on a day the Park
is scheduled to be open, then this will mean the Park is
closed due to bad weather and/or trail
conditions.
