Title: what's happening Post by: bigb on May 26, 2005, 12:04:40 PM i'm sorta new to the site. i've been riding dirt bikes forever and i just got my first quad and i wanted to say hey to everyone. i have a '00 warrior and it's got a '02 Yz426 in it. i figured that was a good place to start, since i am new to quads and 4 strokes i have had a little trouble but it's all working out and i'm sure i went the right direction. it does feel weird launching with two tires though.and this hot start stuff burns me up, any one have any good riding areas a little closer to pinellas besides croom?
Title: Re: what's happening Post by: LittleBit on May 26, 2005, 12:32:03 PM There aren't any legal places to ride other than croom and a few tracks in lakeland / bartow area. [smiley=banghead.gif]

Title: Re: what's happening Post by: cubnfrank on May 27, 2005, 12:35:49 PM bigb, legal places I don't know of of any around here. I ride at some places around holiday & hudson. Hudson ave. & hicks road is alright. Im gonna find the place called east road pits in hudson. Theres a few places to ride you just have to drive a little. I rode at croom and hudson last wekend
Title: Re: what's happening Post by: bigb on May 27, 2005, 02:20:18 PM yeah i have rode at croom many many times. i was looking for somewhere new. where is this hudson place? i'd be coming from u.s. 19 in pinellas.
Title: Re: what's happening Post by: 53yfz450 on May 27, 2005, 03:12:17 PM you would go north on 19 until you hit hudson take a right and down a little ways you wil see a riding area to your left.
p.s. dont ride at east road they take your bike or give you a big ticket. cool place to ride tho. :-/ Title: Re: what's happening Post by: bigb on May 27, 2005, 05:42:35 PM so i take a right on hudson? is that before or after S.R. 50?
Title: Re: what's happening Post by: cubnfrank on May 27, 2005, 06:02:58 PM It's way before 50, It's just past 52 a few miles. Let me know if your going, me & my son may ride there this weekend if he's feeling better

I parked inside last weekend. A few weeks ago the Sheriff told us to stay away from main road. They were being pretty cool. We're either going there or croom tommorow. |
