I'm interested. What time and where ? I also live in Spring Hill. I'm most likely gonna be on a little 250. Unless I get lucky and find a good deal on something else before then.
P.S. I'm older than dirt but I don't putt putt around . I'll do the best I can with what I got .

I've been there a few times and I have maps and GPS. I use the trailhead on 316. Not far from the 88 store. But any trailhead is fine. I don't have a permit but there should still be some available at the trailheads. If I start ATVing a lot I'll invest in a 1 year permit later. I'm going to Croom tomorrow and get that permit 1st cause it's close to home. I now have a rotating day off during the week. |

As a hobby i collect GPX files of ATV trails and when i get enough trails i make a Google earth map and GPS maps. If you have any GPX files you would like to share let me know. I also have a KML file of all Croom lettered trails i could send you if you want. |

Thanks Thunderdually. However all I have is a Magellan eXplorist 200 . It's a small handheld unit I had mounted on my Rancher 4X4 when I had it. I cannot download maps to it. But it has gotten me out the the woods the short way several times. And it's rugged and waterproof.
If I have time tomorrow I'll rig a mount on the little Ozark for it. I'm taking the Ozark to Croom for a shake down ride in the morning.
I'm looking forward to meeting you and other ATVer's.

That sounds good Carlos!! What Trail Head you plan on using? I like the T.H. on 316, its the easiest to get to when coming in from the south if you plan on riding the north trails. I havent
been to that T.H. since they paved it.
Does everybody want to pack samiches or eat @ the little resturant in Salt Springs?
Yes 1Scorpion they have permits @ the T.H., I don't have the yearly pass either & you won't be the only "old timer" there!!!!

Meeting up at the Racetrac sounds good to me. I usually pack burgers and a small grill, but I'm okay with going out, also.

Looks like this ride is taking shape.  I'll go with crowd as far as where to eat. I always pack drinks and snacks. Any idea how far or long we are riding ? I have no fuel guage on my ATV. Didn't know if I should carry an extra gallon of fuel. Cause my reserve don't work. When it's out it's out. |

Let's hope we don't need the tow rope. I won't bother with the gas then. I'll leave some at the truck in case we go back to the trucks I'll top off. I can't wait till the ride. I just changed the oil and checked everything out. |

Your more than welcome to join us apkshorty!! Not sure what everbody is riding.
1Scorpion I think its about 80 miles around the outside loop of the trails. No worries about carrying gas, I can carry 2-1 gal. cans & cooler that fit nicely in my polaris box & I can make it around without refueling.

You know I might just make it. I saw two trailheads off 316; one is right next to 19, apparently near the Salt Springs Connector? The other is the Pipeline trailhead a bit west. Which one were you guys talking about?
BTW SMP63 I rode with you and a pretty good size group about a year ago at 5A; I have a green Grizz 450. We followed that crazy man Derek around on his sport bike most of the day.

Hows it been going James? I had a blast that day @ 5A!!!! We are talking about Pipeline T.H.. The one right next to 19 is the Salt Springs Connector Trail corral & is not a T.H..Hope you can make it James, the more the merrier!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
