How rigidly do they enforce the rules for age-appropriate riding?  I want to take the family up there this year but not if they are going to bust me for letting my daughter ride her Recon (she's 12 and has 5 solid years riding experience).  Let me know.  Thanks.

That rule was established to protect the landowners and trail authority.  If a child riding a machine that is not age appropriate wrecks and gets injured, the trail authority does not want to face legal action for allowing the child to ride the machine.  If the machine fits the child, you shouldn't have a problem.  I do not know of anyone who has been fined for that reason.  And I have dealt with many riders.

If you have any other questions, just ask!!

Just got a 2& up machine and would like to take the family for an outing on the way back from PGH.  Been to Rockhouse thinking about Indian ridge because it is close to I77.  Would be nice to have someone to ride with.
