i rode out to holeylands this afternoon after the rains. rode around for a bit. in the parking area and throughout the trails around it is trash littered everywhere. i picked up at least 60 water bottles in the parking area alone and there was still a shitload laying around. im new to the sprot and if this is one of the few spots left to ride in the west palm/broward area dont you guys think we should keep it clean?

not to mention that this trash affects the wildlife in this area.

You're preaching to the choir, worms.  I think everyone here would agree with you 100%.  Glad to hear that you feel the same way as the rest of us.

Were they EXTRA EXTRA SMALL?  Because Fox17 was out there, and I'll talk to him about that if they were.

I think you're a racist for suggesting that we leave trash around down here! LOL

Worms, you did a good thing by picking up the trash, thanks. As for the salty taste part, you will now be known on here as the guy who knows how used rubbers taste. Huh

We'll be bringing a few garbage bags next time we go. Our TBX has been wanting to feel a load in the box again.. Might be cool to do another clean-up ride when it gets a little drier so the sports can ride with us. Any word on if the south-side is out of hunting season yet so we can go riding? Hopefully I can get my tires on within the next few days, wonder how hard it is to get the bead set on a 26" Mud tire..

Heads up !  Members from South Florida, atvmiaxtreme and a few of us from Ft Myers are planning a HUGE clean up ride at Holey Land this Feb.  So if you want to join us just say so.  About the condoms maybe we can use them as garbage bags, hey recycle.

Who's up for a clean up ride HuhHuhHuhHuh??

Count me in for the clean up ride.  I think it will be a great opportunity to give something back to the environment and meet some new people from the site.

Last time I was there FWC said that trash is the biggest problem.  If the trash doesn't stop, Holey Land will be a thing of the past.

I'll have the training wheels on the dirt bike for the clean up ride.  That should make things a bit easier.

Our fellow riders in Miami will be promoting it down south, local media like the Miami Herald and possibly Univision will be there.  This will help our image.  I spoke with a reporter for the Herald and she said she wants to do a story on the clean up.  "HUGE," if alot of us volunteer.  There was a clean up ride in 2005 and that was a good turn out. So let's plan it.
