like to go ride in osceola , ocala are hasting , ride all day and enjoy the woods. i dont go as much as i like to go but when i get a chance, i go and ride all day. dont like to ride alone anything could happen. let me know who wants to go......jim  iam in jax

I'm planning on going to Hastings on that day if you wanna meet up.  I won't be out there til about 1100, though.

Couple of us were thinking of riding soon we all could meet up.

sounds good to me, i dont care for all the mud and water but if you want to get stuck go for it ...lol.... i like to trail ride . i do like to leave the house around 6 r 7 so we can ride allday. just need to know who is going ? ill be in a black z71 chevy ...hagd

ok who is going , where are we going to meet at , like to meet close to jax , and follow each other down to hasting . i went to hasting a while back and no one showed up. myself i like to get there around 8am are so..... thx

Like I said, I won't be able to get out there until around 1100 or so.  I'm doing some volunteer work out at the beach until about 930.  I will on a green grizzly and and will have my green sportsman 500 out there too.

Where is hasting? Is it public land or private land? How much does it cost? Can I get more details please...

Hastings is up by Palatka, about a hour northeast of Ocala National Forest. Coming from Miami
on I-95 its exit 305 & then head west. I believe its private land & no cost to ride there, a couple
big power lines run through the area. I don't recall hearing anybody getting hasseled by the law
while riding there as long as you stay off the dirt roads!!!!

It's just outside of Palatka.  It's pretty big and it's free.  Here's a map.  I park at "A" and the beginning of the creek I was riding in is at "B".  Some people refer to "B" as "Waffle Top".

i was on a 2x4 in a black chevy z71 , on the left side was a family with kids and a dog, and on the right side of me was a red ford and behind me was a white ford in the shade...
