I'm in Davie and it took me exactly 4 hours with a 15 min stop from my house to Elite camp ground. I-95 is the best way to go I have found. Use mapquest.com and put in your address and the address of Elite Resort 25250 east highway 316, Salt Springs, FL 32134 and it will give you the directions and best way to go.

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?
glad your aboard. i was going to post to inquire if anyone going on the ride had EMT training. can i assume that you do?

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....
jeff
I have to appoligize , just in case anyone missed my comment earlier. Doreen and I will NOT be able to attend this ride. I absolutley would have offered to guide the sport quad group from the pit to the 88 store.
One BIG key point- KNOW who is behind you, and if they disappear- STOP or slow down until they catch up !!! This will in turn cause a domino effect in front of you as everyone eventually stops to wait for the person behind them.
I'm hoping there will be a Rodman Group ride V- maybe a few weeks after IV ? Perhaps I'll start a new thread about it...

jjamesbar,
the trips sound good, this will be my frist time out to rodman dam. I have a 7 year son he rides a Raptor 50. he a very good rider for his age and raptor is pretty tricked out it does about 25 mph, do think he can handle it ? Let me know. I have all the 2way radios for the trip.
thanks

I don't think a raptor 50 can keep up with us on this ride but you could stay back with the other group at Rodman dam.
We would happy to have u with our group if your son would ride with U on your bikes.

we will being going to the ride but staying in the pit area as many will do and take smaller trail rides that your son will be able to go, my nephew will be riding his new preditor 50 that santa will be bringing him so we will not be going on the "big" ride
but should be a great day of riding and meeting new people

it would be pushing it a bit for a 7yr old. we're talking around 60 miles round trip. we do make frequent stops but we are talking an all day ride. has he done anything close to that before? we have had more than a few adults catch rides back from the 88 store.

i knew you weren't able to make this ride. go ahead and start a february thread for rodman V. hopefully we will do 1 ride per month like we were doing before hunting season. maybe ida man will take the sport quads out on this one.

We rode with my 6 year old grandson, and had to double up a few times cuz it was a bit much for him and his 125 breeze. This will be a longer ride too. besides, the raptor only has 3.5 inches ground clearance, and that will kill your ride in the forest.

ida man could. he has an atp modified 400ex.
you could probably just follow our trail back. 80 quads will leave a very good trail even on a dirt road.

one would think that, but I still got lost coming back after I got seperated from the rest of the small crew I headed back with.
I'm gonna make some trips next time I go riding to see if I can find a somewhat smoother ride to Rodman from my end of the forest.
then maybe I can take a group back from 88 store.
but if I head from my place to Rodman in the morning,,,,I'll be headed from the 88 store home instead of going back to Rodman.
also, if I do that, I will of course have my truck with a trailer that I could haul some quads back to Rodman from there.
things to think about before the ride.

Just trying to get the word out that if you want a T-shirt please go to the open discussion forum and place your order. The deadline is getting closer and we don't have that many orders.
What happened to all those people that where saying they wanted them
I am afraid the price of the shirts might go up at the print shop if we don't get more orders. The price was quoted on 75-100 shirts. We so far today only have 46 on order.
Here is the link you need to go to:

The combination of getting lost in ONF last time, better learning how to us my new GPS and maps from Grizz of the forest, I feel much more comfortable finding my way around for the next trip.

Yes I am a EMT and would be happy to help anyone in need but I cannot be held responsible for any medical services, in a formal sense. Looking forward to a safe ride.
