Welcome to the forum!! I'm just outside of Tampa myself, Brandon actually... there's not a whole lot of places to ride around here. Rancho is really the only place I know of. 

Nothing wrong with the Chinese ATV's as long as your having fun, iI had a roketa 250 and rode that thing till the wheels fell of, literally...

yeah I found that out, but we have been riding on a property my brother in law has access to. it has a mx track with a few jumps and a pretty good trail cut thru out the property.

heres a few crappy cell shots- my beater is the blue 150. got it for 200 bux with the plastic still on the seat

Welcome to the site. Your best bet for other riding places is:

Rancho (Zephyrhills) - free
Croom (Brookville) - Annual Fee
Dirty Foot Adventures (Lake Wales) - Membership and fee on visits.

Please wear a helmet. We see way too many people suffer major head injuries that could have been prevented by wearing a skull cap.

Cool. If you are looking for someone to ride with, I'm in. Just moved to the area and trying to get together with someone to ride with.
