Title: Big Cypress water level Post by: danfl on May 06, 2010, 01:12:36 PM Does anyone know how the water level is there? I have not been a few months. Wanted to take the kid for a ride.

Remember, you can't ride doubles in the BICY and you've got to have your permits and stickers. Big fines for violations on any of these items.

Two out of the three of us sliced tires wide open and I choked mine with water. As you know, there's no roadside assistance out there and on those kind of days you can ride all day without seeing anyone(to help you).

Even though 1995 was a record year for high water levels, I dont recall the spring being so high then. The summer was a different story .

He knows the most about it. I have rode there a few times. Water is always too deep, a lot of rules (highly enforced), Hot as balls there most of the time, easy to get lost, bumpy as hell. And not easy on the tires. F-that. Title: Re: Big Cypress water level Post by: srtlongbow123 on May 09, 2010, 06:34:37 PM thanks what do you meen hard on tires i have outlaws
