Rd#9 – “The Mothman XC” – Sunday Sept 19th – Leon, WV
This Sunday September 19th, we will be hosting our RD#9 at “The Mothman XC” located in Leon, WV! We are excited to be able to bring you guys back to this track as this was a brand new track for us back in 2019 and it was a crowd favorite then! We have been very busy cleaning up some of old trails as well as adding alot of new sections!! This is a true Woods XC Race course with quite a bit of tight technical areas with plenty of nice elevation changes up and down the good ole hills of WV!! Make sure you check back on our social media pages for final track mileage later in the week!
The landowner had some land clearing done last year which opened up another 5+ acres of parking area so there is plenty of room to bring in your toy haulers or campers in to make it a full weekend family adventure with us (gates close at 11pm Saturday) There are areas that are perfectly level and others have a slight slop so make sure you bring some extra boards to help level your camper up. As always there is no extra charge for primitive camping. Make sure you pay close attention to the bottom of this page for the track address & special directions.
Due to popular demand and since we are back to our regular Sunday race day schedule, we will now be having the strider/stacycs events at every round on the starting line right after the Adult Quads take off around 3:30pm! These will be special “exhibition” events for our little up and coming future racers that have striders and the battery powered stacycs. They will be broke down into separate events one for Striders and the other for the Stacycs. The track will consist of a small loop around our starting line area and this is not a competition event, its just for fun and to get our lil ones ready for future competition events when they can enter the peewee ranks. There is no sign up fee, (its FREE!) for this event, just show up at the start line area after the adult quads take off and await for instructions. All riders must have a bicycle style or full face helmet in order to participate!
On top of our regular event rules, see the link below for the recommended guidelines and some new procedures that we will be following in order to get us all back out onto the track this coming Sunday! Your health and safety as well as all of our helpers is very important to us, so please take a couple minutes to review the new guidelines before you head to the track this weekend!

Riders will be required to have a transponder which is used to record your laps and laps times when you come through the finish area. Our transponders are the stick on type which go on the back side of your helmet. The transponders are a one time cost of $10.00, sorry we cant rent them out per race. It will be a one time purchase and as long as you don’t damage it, lose it or switch helmets. If you already have one of these stick on style transponders from any other race series, you are good to go as long as it passes the reader test at registration. Also there is no such thing as a “annual renewal/programming fee” with us!

Use this map link for directions to the track
Directions Tip:
If you have a RV, pulling a camper or large box trailer and are coming from the north, ex. Parkersburg/ Marietta area. If your using a GPS or smartphone app it will more than likely direct you off of RT 87 unto Leon Baden Road or off of RT2 onto Bud Chatten Rd. DO NOT take either of these roads!! Yes it is a shorter distance but way rougher tight road, but its only a few minutes longer and a much better drive to continue towards Pt Pleasant and turn off onto RT 62 and follow it until you come to Debbie Rd and don’t forget to look for Red Arrows when you get near!
