Location: Mountain Ridge ATV Resort at Somerset, Pennsylvania
“Rock’n Randy” is one of the gnarliest rock sections on the circuit.
Est: September 2007
The inaugural 2007 event marked the return of GNCC racing to Pennsylvania! Mountain Ridge is a very successful ATV trail system in Western Pennsylvania, not far east of Pittsburgh.
Those who ride well in rocks will have an edge as this place is covered in them. Rocks, boulders, whatever you want to call it, Mountain Ridge has it, so be ready with good armor, good tires, rock suspension and a cool throttle hand.
Parking and pitting and primitive camping is plentiful and available in a flat field. Hooray!
Check out the official Web site of the host facility, www.mountainridgeatvtrails.com for the best info on the facility.
