Thanks.

Tough call on times but the summer is usually the best. Most central Florida members are college students and getting a meet together during the year is a lot harder than one during the summer. Where are you located at by the way?

I wanted to get a census on when the best time is. I believe we should do it in the summer or even during the schools winter break.

BULLSHYT, ABSOLUTE BULLSHT.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just moved away from Slocala. AARRGGH I had a ranger in dunnellon for 10 years and now yall post this. LOL Not only have I moved but I sold the ranger, bummer. Anyways Best wheelins out by the 4 corners on the south side of highway 40. We took a buncha 4wheelers out that way. They got some campground and stuff that have access to the firebreaks.



Are yall still gettin good rain down there? It was nasty whenI left.

Hello everybody. I live in Palatka, Which is about 10 miles from Rodman Dam. I grewup riding 4 wheelers and driving jeeps out there at the sand pits. My neighbor evan has a old hunting camp out off of old 77. I think a group ride would be great. I have never been on an "organized" run before. Its a nice place out there they have really done a lot to make it nice.
