The PB500 routes as of 2024 have changed because of a brand new policy created special for us on the day our trail approvals were issued for the 2024 event. They will not allow firecuts or plow lines for companies that put on events that are “For Profit” entities. As you know firecuts are not allowed to be used by regular every day riders throughout New Jersey unless it is under an event using a Special Use Permit (SUP). This allowance will not be permitted for Adventure riding type of events or the newly created stipulation “For Profit” .
The more traditional style PB500 or 2 day PB300 type events are still challenging and fun events. Losing most of the firecuts does not mean there are not some tight old roads and interesting trails throughout the course. It is not just wide sand roads. Sand will also continue to challenge the rider in certain sections especially if on a bigger bike.
Newer riders will still want to consult with us at registration to talk about any deep sand sections and look at alternates.
Riders meeting at 09:00 each morning is mandatory.
These events are always under scrutiny, please observe 20mph speed limits on dirt roads in State Forest and always stay on the gps track. Park Police will be present on the course in undisclosed locations.
The machines allowed to enter the event must be street legal from the manufacturer, and have DOT Knobby Tires, USFS approved exhaust and a sound level below 95 DB. Riders must be over 18 years of age and have a valid driver’s license and liability insurance. Registered and insured bikes only. Quiet new street legal Two strokes are ok. No Helmet Cams or Go Pros will be allowed. And we ask for limited social media postings.
Pre Entry only.
The PB500 entry numbers will be limited.
see eventzilla page for entry costs.
Our official food stop for breakfast or dinner will be Farmer Johns right near the start.
