Thx for the reply Outlaw.  Glad to hear this would be doable for us, expecially little one.  Any plans to get together and ride as a group in the future?

oooops it was Saturday!

Greetings fellow riders!  Jay here in Mandarin.  I just recently equipt my wife and I, an our 7 yr old daughter with ATV's.  I read this forum last week with regard to Middleburg riding. Sunday I found myself in that area and decided to scout it a little.  I saw the opening by the end of the hill, and, I too, found a tractor trailor blocking the entrance that you metioned.  I took a right on 16 and found an entrance (2nd one I believe) on the right that was passible and not gated.  Is it ok and safe to pull up in there as well?  Also, my daughter rides slow and steady, she manages her machine responsibly so far!  I am guessing with that much space, other riders would not frown upon her riding and learning there?  Thanks for your input and help,  Jay Smith.
