Pine Ridge Raceway

Pine Ridge Raceway in Athelstane, Wisconsin has been family-owned by the La Count family since 1999. Two-plus decades of continuous family ownership in American motocross is its own kind of operating commitment, and the La Count family's stewardship has built Pine Ridge into the Northwoods regional anchor. The one-mile sandy motocross track sits in the Wisconsin Northwoods, with natural elevation changes and sections winding through forest. The forest setting is the property's defining feature. Most regional Wisconsin tracks are built on cleared parcels with minimal tree cover. Pine Ridge runs through actual woods, which produces shade, shelter, and the kind of scenic riding experience that flat-cleared tracks cannot deliver. The sandy soil holds up across the active season with the kind of grippy characteristics that Wisconsin sand develops through proper maintenance. The natural elevation changes built into the layout come from the actual hill country grade rather than bulldozed berms. An on-site pro shop carries fuel, clothing, gear, and parts. The retail operation distinguishes serious facilities from properties that force riders to leave for parts and gear needs. Broken equipment does not necessarily end the trip when the property runs its own shop. Camping is permitted on practice dates. The structure makes Pine Ridge a real weekend destination rather than a daily practice stop. The Athelstane location is in Marinette County, northeastern Wisconsin near the Michigan Upper Peninsula border. Green Bay is about 90 minutes south, the U.P. border is 30 minutes north, and the position pulls riders from both Wisconsin and the U.P. The Northwoods setting and family-owned operating culture combine into a regional facility that has held its identity across multiple operating cycles.
