Gamer, Durkan, myself and a few other good friends
are getting together the weekend of the 20th at Big Cypress. MuddingMark is coming for the day. We are going to setup camp on the 20th early and leave on the 22nd. We are going to ride until we run out of clean clothes.
You are welcome to camp with us, out in the dark woods, or you can reserve an official camp site with shower (cold water only) and bathroom just down the road from where we will be. You are also welcome to come out and ride with us just for the day if you want.
If you have not got your bike inspected yet, you can get it inspected anytime between 8 and 3 during the entire weekend at the Visitor station. Bring your title or or a title request form ( the dealer knows what it means ) and $50 bucks and your in. It also must meet the requirements below. They actually measure the tire width (face ) with a ruler. Make sure you have these
or it will be a long ride home. There is a gas station with a Subway and a little restaurant down the road. Got to this site for more info about Big Cypress.
http://www.nps.gov/bicy/orv/orvpage.htmThe mud is deep, we are not talking a water hole with mud underneath, you can see the mud. If you want to ride reply to this thread. There is some water so you will get wet, "is it deep?" I have not hit any that is over the headlights of my Sportsman, although there is some deep stuff out there. A lot of the water has dried up. Oh, I forgot to mention how beautiful and peaceful it is out there. It is hard to believe something this beautiful existed in south Florida.
The trails take you over 8 miles into the middle of the forrest, so bring a snack and plenty of water and make sure your tank is full. A few cans of Fix-a-flat and some tire plugs would not hurt either. Remember you will be miles from your rig.
A GPS is cool to have also.
I am no expert on the place, but there are people on this board that have camps out there that are very familiar with BC. (AnOriginal) I will try to answer any questions you may have and I am sure there are people on this board that will help out as well..So who is in?
