WOW you cut him quick   Jerry

[Chuck_Norris]

I just sumbited a Media Request to 2 of the major News stations here and also posted a link to our website. Maybe they will actually consider it News worthy

[jjamesbar]

scratch me off i guess ill see yall around.
      talk to yall in awhile

one of the main drawbacks of being a minor is not being able to call all the shots regarding your own wishes. sometimes its for your own good and sometimes other factors play into it. what ever your reason is i hope things get worked out where you can make it.

jeff

[A.T.steVe_k]

HEY GRIZZ PLEASE ADD BLUESMAN +2 MORE TO THE LIST
THANKS
                    STEVE

[miamiblaster]

hey yea that would be pretty sweet if we could get some of the local news station to cover this event and put it on the news...who knows mabeay rodman trail ride can become a sponcerd event some day.....

[Ida_Mann]

I'll send a note to a neighbor of mine who's a reporter for Local 6.

Id@

[SkyHighT100]

Yeah, that would definately be cool! Hopefully it will call more POSITIVE attention to OHV use and maybe get a kickstart to opening more areas up.. not to mention, get more attention to this website, lol. If it does happen.. just be sure whenever you get on a quad with the cameras around.. to have your helmet on! I could just see that getting turned into some huge issue and hurt us instead of help us, lol (my luck anyway)

Haa aint that the truth. Granted they make good decisions when I probably wouldn't but half the time I can't make to any ride cause either Grams won't let me go or Gramps is working so I don't have a ride. I am trying to make it to this : ride but, I doubt I will grams doesn't like me riding alone.   :-/

[jjamesbar]

I doubt I will grams doesn't like me riding alone.   :-/

alone is one thing you wont be if you make to rodman.

jeff

[DarkFireDragon]

HAHAHAH 2 great minds think alike. Thats what I told her but, by alone I mean all by myself no other family members. I am trying to use the fact that so many are going to my advantage so I can hopefully go.

[Thrasher]

I was gonna say...alone is NOT an issue in this case...heh..quite far from it!

[budman]

I was gonna say...alone is NOT an issue in this case...heh..quite far from it!

depends on if our leader has another case of get-gone!!!  Sorry Grizz
But I'll have my own GPS on the bike thats not mine

[SkyHighT100]

This time I think we need to have a bit more of a plan when it comes to the ride. Alot of people got separated the last time. Maybe split into groups depending on speeds, with hopefully at least one person in the group having GPS. And be sure to do headcounts every so often, just incase, lol. I know I would hate to be riding and notice someone missing, when its been 45 minutes since our last stop, lol. Thats a lot of ground to cover to find them. The main thing.. Everyone look out for one another, whether you know eachother or not, lol. And I'm not sure if people last time realized this, but if you dont want to go on the ride to the 88 store.. theres a bunch of us that just hang out at the pit.. and go on smaller trail rides (dang gas guzzlers.. yeah.. you know who you are!) Lol.

Lol.

Last time I checked, all the pit riders and gas guzzlers would be just about be everyone that had been ATP'd. NOT me. I am still stock, but someone has to be the same one of the bunch. Since we are all the outcasts...lol

[LTZ400ApK]

whats wrong with mine then i havent been Atp'd,i guess i need to take it there so i have a excuse

i agree sky, im riding slow on the way to the store and then my wife, son, and mom are driving back in the car so i can blaze my way back

[Moose]

I just went and got two of those gmrs/frs radios with ear buds for the ride. It would be nice if each group had the front and back rider with one to keep everyone together. That is if we split up into fast and slow groups. Don't want to lose anyone out there, it's easy to get turned around, trails everywhere.

[arod]

 never been to onf. but i am going to this ride for sure. so far i got 3 for sure and waiting on about 10. we will be doing a one day ordeal.will post back when i have a total quad count.

right sky,

in our case when riding to the 88 store i doubt more than 4 people can get there legally through the woods, that would be myself grizz ida man and naples raptor . if someone else knows how please speak up. im hoping we eventually do smaller groups as people get familiar with the trails. lets atleast have a group of sport (fast) and a group of utes (slow). me and grizz will be in the utility group someone step up for the sport group.

helpfull hints not to get lost:

keep up with the guy in front

the guy in front should know who is behind them

use common sense if you get separated its very easy to follow tracks of 30 quads.

if you are not sure where to go wait where you are. if your riding with me i will come back and look for you. even if it takes 45 minutes.

designate a guy in the rear. the guy with the flag last time was excellent. we need some more flags.

we have several sets of radios promised this time.

do not break from the group without telling someone. this and not making a good effort to keep up is what happened last time and caused the big screwup!

if you dont think you can keep up please stay with the group at the pit.

Oh dang did he just call us slow?

[jjamesbar]

Oh dang did he just call us slow?

no no no. i would never insult you apt guys like that. that would be worse than storming a mosque. i should have said "stay at the pit close to your trucks"  

jeff

[zilla954]

I think I'm gonna try and make this one.  I've never been to ONF before.  How far is Delancey campground from Rodman dam?  How do I get in on one of those gas drops?  I ride a 2 stoke with a large appetite.

[YamahaFirefighter]

Looking forward to this one. Hopefully I can get to Ocala to check the place out before the ride.  

Please put YamahaFirefighter  down for 2 quads.  

Can anyone give me directions how to get to the trail head or parking area from the Orlando area?
