Only on designated trails and if you have a ATV you need the green sticker and also a managment area sticker i  believe.
Utilities just need the managment sticker becuase they are considered buggies.

Big Cypress is not a place for sport bikes.

That's correct for a variety of reasons. First, there's always too much water for those bikes. Second, those bikes are built for speed, not for a comfortable long ride and speeding is going to get ATVs banned from Big Cypress. So, go ahead, we'll just ride our Jeep when that happens.
