Log Road MX

Log Road MX sits on Log Road near Bronson, around nine miles west of Coldwater in the farm country of Branch County in southern Michigan. The operator publishes its own practice calendar: for 2026 it lists dates from late March to late October, among them the Friday before the Mid-East Area Loretta Lynn qualifier and Memorial Day. One rule the operator names explicitly as a requirement of its insurance carrier - minors must be registered by a parent or legal guardian, for race days as well as practice days, with a signed liability release and a guardian present on site. The directory riderplanet-usa lists two motocross tracks, the big one at 1.5 miles, plus a peewee course for 50 to 65cc machines. The fees given there are five dollars admission per person and 30 dollars per rider, with a GLMX membership required; camping is free on Friday and Saturday nights with no fixed pitches. The facility closes over the winter. The ground varies, according to the directory, between gravel, sand, loamy dirt and hardpack sections, and the layout can be run in several variants - so one lap takes you through very different grip levels and across fast ground. That is where a balance problem shows up first: top of our cause list for a vague feeling in fast sweepers is ride-height and sag balance being off. Set the sag correctly before you start turning individual damping clicks.
