Who's for a cleanup ride in Ocala in January? Say the third week, which would be the end of hunting season and a perfect time to do a cleanup ride. Cleanup on Sat. and explore the forest for a few hours on Sun..
Who's down? I can bring a trailer for my atv and a couple of trucks for hauling if we can't get any dumpsters, I could probably get a small dump truck there if we get enogh volunteers.

I think that is a great idea, considring, when we went riding the other day, on the way out there was nothing but trash on the side of the clay rodes. Its seems likes its gotten a lot worse and its making me sick. So you can count me in if you plan it on a day that I'm not working.

The third weekend in January then, I don't think we'll need a permit but if I'm wrong someone tell me where to get it. I'll be bringing at least one small trailer to tow behind the fourwheeler.
Lets start a head count so we can figure out whether we'll need a permit.

That would be the 15th and 16th. I say we have it on the 15th so we don't all have to rush home and people can still goto Church the next day. Probably same as usual, meet at 8 start at 9. Maybe assign teams with 1 leader(quad with trailer) and 4-5 people with a leader to cover different areas. Clean until 1-2 and maybe grill out some lunch and then people that need to can go home and the rest can just go on a big group ride. Or just have a big clean up with lunch break and back to cleaning until 4-5.

The 21 sounds great. I'll have a small traailer for my UTE and I'll also bring a couple of trucks to put the trash in. If we get enough cats to show, I'll bring an Isuzu dump truck. I'll be leaving the kids at home for this one, I'd like to do some hard riding the afternoon of the 21st.
I look forward to seeing some familiar faces, and some new ones.

The north end of the forest has all ready had a few cleanup rides. The real bad areas for trash are in the south end of the forest. Also if we do it in the south end there is a dump center that is open on saturday to take all the trash. Part of the new designated trail system will be going into effect in the Paisley area in March. We could probably clean this area up so its ready for the marked trails. But its just a suggestion.

P.S, There are some really smooth trails in this area for a ride afterward.

Do to the obvious lack of volunteers, I will NOT be organizing a cleanup ride. Instead, a few friends and I will be riding the third weekend of Jan., camping at BigScrub. All are welcome to join.

I will be going to Big Scrub the weekend of the 20,21,22 to RIDE<RIDE<RIDE. I would like to do the cleanup ride just not enough volunteers to really make an impact. I'll try setting up a cleanup ride this spring.
Anyone that would like to join us that weekend needs to keep in mind that this is going to be a pretty hardcore ride as I and my friends are leaving the wives and kids at home. Basically if your new to riding or only have alittle experience you might not enjoy trying to keep up with the rest of us.
Dreth, was hoping for a trail guide who knows the forest better than me, you up for it?

your doing a good thing by trying to clean up the trash in the Forest. What you might think about is getting some publicity about it. I have been hearing about the bad rep ATV'S have, here is a chance to change that, gt the star banner to do a story on it. If they don't see if one of you can do a story on it and submit it to the banner.
