Sadly that's probably just the beginning.  We all want more riding spots and instead we keep loosing the ones we do have.  Unfortunatly the "bird watchers" and the "butterfly explorers" are winning these battles by using the bad-apples among us as examples of the destruction and noise caused by ATV's and dirt bikes.

All they have to do is give us some place to ride in soutern Florida.That would take away the beating that ONF takes.Is that to much to ask [smiley=Question.gif]

I agree with bigsteve. They all complain about all the riding in ONF damaging everything but dont realize if they opened more riding areas it would reduce the strain on ONF.
