It such a shame that the powers to be dont see the need for one way trails. Atleast clear out the blind turns. I stop riding the northern end due to the dangers. I only ride wandering grass loop where most riders try to ride one direction.

I'm hoping the powers to be are still checking this thread once and a while. I for one am NOT going to stop riding cause a few idiots think they are alone out there. However with limited funding and staff. And I don't know how many volunteers. There is only so much that can be done. We all need to do our part to make it a better and safer trail system. It's a 2hr drive one way for us to ride there. And now I'm going to bring some tools and try to help clear a line of sight on a curve or two when I go. It's not much but every little bit helps. There used to be a group called the Ocala Forest Volunteers are they still around ? I think a train horn would be great but a little over kill !

I sometimes get a week day off but it doesn't fall on the 21st this time. Thank you for doing your part. I will try to do the same. It will still be a couple of weeks before my arm is 100% . I'm still working but it ain't easy.

Can a polaris trailboss 330 get around easily at ocala? I've wanted to take a trip there but wasn't sure if it gets too deep out there this time of year.

Hey everyone! I just returned from 3 weeks of military training and I am glad to see the traffic on this thread (other than the accident, very sorry to hear). I am working on cleaning up Blue Sink...again. Dropping some trees and rebuilding the corral walls. I'm gonna try and get out again this week to check the trail for trees downed in the recent rain storms. I may be able to continue to clear line of sight around turns throughout the summer, it is a long and daunting task, but the result is great! When Fall comes around, we will have volunteers assign for this task specifically to continue from the Scrub Jay loop north. Brian at Big scrub is assigned as security only, although he is very helpful and I encourage any rider to meet him. He is up in a white trailer in the Northwest corner of the campground. I'll do my best to keep the trails safe and fun during the Summer until my volunteer helpers return! -Kris
