Coca-Cola Drive
From Dirtopia, The Off-Road Encyclopedia
This area is closed
(July 24, 2007) I just went here this past weekend and it appears they have constructed fences around the entire area and posted NO TRESPASSING signs. There is a roundabout way of getting in, but you'll be facing potential prosecution if caught.

Access to Coca-Cola Drive is off Exit 8 from Rt 100 for Coca-Cola Drive. Go north on Coca-Cola drive. After about 1/4 mile, you'll cross railroad tracks, then come to a traffic light at Park Circle Drive. Go straight through the light and make an immediate left onto the dirt trails.
This area is primarily used by dirt bikes and ATVs. I've heard that off-roading trucks are unwelcome by the dirtbike/ATV crowd, but I've never had any trouble with them in my FJ; I just stay out of their way. There's a big area of dirt in the middle with lots of technical ruts and hills, then some stream crossing trails towards the north end in the woods. You could easily spend a few hours here and not get bored.
Rumor has it this area is privately owned by either Verizon or Coca-Cola, both who have large office complexes nearby. Due to the large amount of dirtbike/ATV traffic, this area is not considered illegal; I've taken my FJ there many times and never had a problem.
If you're doing the streams, watch the large chunks of cement; I almost saw a Tacoma's axle ripped apart when it hit a large chunk of cement that was basically invisible from one side.
Before going, check out Google satellite for some good views of this area.

Feb. 10, 2008- There is no way of getting in to this place anymore! I went there today and I spent almost an hour trying to find a way in.
- This has been stated to be private property, and "No Trespassing" signs have been confirmed. Please remove this page from Dirtopia as it is not good for our hobby to encourage wheeling on private property without permission!
