Title: Osceola Saturday Ride?
Post by: dodgenfl on April 05, 2005, 07:56:08 PM
I've been riding in Osceola NF all my life and my family has land that joins up to the forest. I was wonder if ya'll would be interested in a Saturday ride? There is room to park and unload but the family does not want the land mess up. This means ALL riding leaving the parking area and returning would have to be slow. This is a muddy and wet ride. Any help planning this would be welcome.

I would be game for it but I cannot do this weekend. My brother lives in Lake City and we have rode out their before. Also check with Big-Pimpin and Chuck Norris. They live in Jacksonville and probably would ride.

I am always up for riding but mud isn't my game. I still want to get out there and check it out but gotta find some dry ground and I don't imagine there is to much of that out there right now.  :)

Pimpin, You sure do not and I repeat, DO NOT want to ride out there when its dry. We rode it last year while it was a little wet and it was great. Then we went back when it was dry, It was black dirt everywhere. In 30 minutes, it looked as if we had been riding for 2 weeks without baths. HEHE

I wasn't thinking of this saturday just a Saturday. I like to set a date (in May) and go from there. We ride for about 4 hours them go back and eat lunch then head back riding again. It's wet but most of the deep holes have go arounds them, If your scared. Just kidding some of them you have to go around.

Make a date. As long as its a Sunday, I'm good for a ride. Depending on which Saturday you choose, I may be. I'm off work every other Saturday usually. My brother lives in Lake City and is ready to ride also. Have more people also.
