Those stupid electrics are so expensive, and break every other week. I'm gonna try that boat winch...lol...8$ and if I like i get a 2 speed 12,000lber with 50 feet of strap. :)

Just need an anchor and you could ride the swamp alone.

It wasn't all that dry past the buggy bridge! I bent a tierod and had to do six miles back to the truck at 15mph with a front wheel pointing all out left it sucked. It was like 40 as well, and had let a buddy wear my jacket. Awesome ride even if I almost lost my fingers to frostbite.

I got a few pics to post.

HOW CAN I GET TO THE BUGGY BRIDGE?

Just follow the main trail from the parking lot south, than a bit west. You really can't miss it.

I'm riding saturday afternoon with some friends.  All our bikes are on stock rubber, but we are going to try and make it to the buggy bridge.

I know we need flags, but how about green stickers ?  Are they strict about that out there.

It is bone dry, you shouldn't have any problems. Flags are a must 11"x14", no need for the stickers.

You need the flags because it is a 68$ ticket I hear without them...you are also riding in 10 foot tall sawgrass, the flags are nice to see a guy about to crash into you through the tall grass at 60mph.

It's not a park, it's a Wildlife Management Area(WMA) and there's no fees, yet.

it must be a square flag, my understanding is you'll get a ticket with a triangle flag.


Title: Re: Thinking of a 4x4 Holeylands ride Saturday night.
Post by: miassmaro98 on April 12, 2007, 01:09:55 PM
WELL THAT SUCKS I ORDER A TRIANGLE ONE,GUESS I HAVE TO ORDER A SQUARE ONE


Title: Re: Thinking of a 4x4 Holeylands ride Saturday night.
Post by: backinsaddle on April 12, 2007, 01:12:39 PM
i don't know what hair-brained moron decided the flags should be square, most flags that I see for sale are triangle.  I was out there this weekend, and couldn't find square flags, so I bought triangle ones, took some cotton material, cut to size, spray painted with flourescent orange, and then glued it to the pole...
