you can still go out to gandy but i wouldnt suggest it. lost of crime out there lately, spring hill, z-hills, few places in riverview, lakeland and even ocala forest. few months ago sunshine speed way in clearwater had a "trucks on the track" event where you could drive on the moto-x course and they opened a mud hole but its temporairly closed due to the city assclowns saying its unsafe for spectators

btw. rancho is closed to the public. you will get a fine if you're caught out there without a deed to the land that you're on

I've heard Ocala is good but never been. I have been through Withlacoochee State Forest and it has some mudholes and the local jeep clubs go out there and drive the hills, dunes and such

there are still a lot of holes in Ocala, there's also a place in Ocala that's called hard rock. theres a lot of places that are closed now through out springhill, hudson, brooksville. theyve gotten real strict in some areas as stated above with Rancho. I live in Citrus County theres a few places around here.
