I agree. Today was my first time and I will most definitely be going back again

A group of us rode Alapaha today and there are plenty of dry areas to ride in on either side of the overpass We did encounter some deep water sections that were unpassable but there was enough dry areas to ride all day without geting bored

Good point, Old School. I have personally contributed to more than a few "college" funds over the years.....Not that there's anything wrong with that. Strippers need love too.

be careful if you are riding alongside 441 in the ditches. we have been stopped and warned by FHP. We also got stopped and warned by Columbia County sherriff deputy while riding on Bible Camp road,near the river. I heard recently that if you get caught riding on Bible Camp road that you can be fined $500.00 but I don't know if that is true.

I am a proud Toyota owner I currently have 2 and I have had 4 previous Toyotas. All of them are/have been very reliable. I have also owned 3 Fords in the past(Mustang Cobra,Mustang GT and Ranger 4x4) the Mustangs were great,unfortunately the Ranger was the biggest p.o.s. I have ever owned,except for my first truck, a Chevy LUV. HONK,HONK

I will be there with a group of apprx. 15-20.

I can tell you from years of experience,the Toyota truck,if properly maintained,will be very dependable and it will last a very long time. If you want the best of both worlds(full size truck and Toyota reliability) you could consider a Tundra. The down side to a Tundra, as a first truck, is that even usedones  with high miles they can sometimes still be a little pricey.

door #1 Jeep Cherokee???...door #2 BMW 3 series??
neither of these vehicles would generally be considered to rank high in the "trouble free" zone....I'd opt for what may be behind door #3.(keep looking and keep your options open)

For variety of content and long time dedication to the sport,I will say Dirt Wheels. However,I gotta say Quad is leading the way in photo quantity and quality.Only time will tell if they can stay on the scene as long as some of the other mags. If,so,I believe Quad has potential to take the top spot.

Speaking from experience I can tell you that one of the hardest things is keeping their attention. First,I would recommend at least 2 asst. coaches. That gives you more man power to split the team into smaller groups so you can teach them the fundamentals of the game without having to spend most of that time getting their attention. Have each coach kinda specialize in a certain area.(hitting,fielding,etc...) rotate the groups out after short periods to keep the pace moving along so the kids don't get bored,just don't move too fast because they are in a learning process.Also,help from parents can sometimes be a welcome sight,as long as it is help and not criticism.Parents are quick to coach from the bleachers. Let the parents know that the kids are indeed their kids but when they are on the field,they are your kids and they need to be paying attention to you,not the "coaches" in the bleachers hollering out instructions. Just my 2 cents,hope it helps.

I,too,worked at Publix back in the day for minimum wage [smiley=Angry.gif] I think I lasted six months before moving on to better things. I worked in the deli and I hated it.

Great pics,man! Got any more?

I had a great time. This was the best one I have been to yet. There was just enough mud to make it fun and challenging but not too much that I was getting stuck every five minutes.(been there,done that before)

try www.cityofalachua.com...also if you wanted to call the Alachua City Hall @ 386-462-1231,someone there may be able to offer some imformation or direct you to somewhere that can give some more info..www.alachua.com also has some useful info.

not a bad site..thanks for the link. [smiley=Cool.gif]

I have had my 05 Predator since October and I have been very pleased with it. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a very versatile,fun to ride sport quad. (Not knocking any of the other sport quadson the market however) I have previously had Yamaha,Honda and Polaris quads with no trouble from any of them. The Predator has been my favorite of them all.

Gotta be DirtWheels [smiley=Clap.gif]

Welcome,ladies.

Dragon and Wolf! Awesome job! Dragon,you were able to put
a very close representation of my dog,my bike and my truck in the same shot. Goods delivered as advertised,you are the man. Wolf,I like the added touch of the ears flying in the breeze. Kudos to both of you...You got skills.

Okay, I will indulge your creativity. How about an English Setter dog pulling a wheelie on a 2005,red Polaris Predator. For extra credit,have a black Toyota Tundra 4 door somewhere in the background.
