My wife & I have rode the Ocala north trails a couple of times getting started about 8:30 am
& not getting back to the truck until dark, having to use a flash light to strap the wheelers down. 1 wheeler carried extra gas that we used & the other a cooler with food & drinks. We did sneek off the main trail a couple times for some extracurricular activity. Didn't keep track of the miles we rode but can tell you it sure was FUN!!!!!!!!!!

RZR Tank holds around 7 or 7.5 gallons,So far I am loving the RZR it's a whole lot diffrent than a Atv,I still have 4 Atv's & Plan on keeping them but RZR is much more comfortable & doesn't beat you up like a Atv will,Going to be makng quite a few trips to ONF to get used to the RZR before going back to Hatfield McCoy this summer.

i like look of the RZR,but they arent very popular here in miami,they dont do very well in mud,if u get 1 of those stuck ur gonna need an army to move it..and i dont really like the  horsepower,speed,performence of those RZR.i think they should make them with a 4cyclinder  motorcycle motor with plenty of HP and a 6spd,manual tranny. Evil.but thats just my opinion,

I've been on a couple of 70-80 mile rides but the most memorable/longest ride was out at River Ranch with a big group. We only went 14 miles but it took over 10 hours. The ride took so long due to everything being completely flooded and we had ATV's UTVs and Jeeps in the group. Was a great ride.

Several years ago took the family and ATVs to Taylor Lake, Colorado.  We rode 5 days and put over 500 miles.  Longest day was well over 100 miles but don't recall exactly how many; less than 120.  I drive a 700 Rhino so was able to take along quite a bit of extra fuel, food and drinks.  If you ever have the opportunity, I highly recommend going there.  They have cabins and ATVs to rent if you don't want to take yours with you.  Best part of the trip was when it snowed on us while we were on our way to Aspen.  Our trip was in the middle of August so it was quite a surprise (and a thrill for the kids) to see snow falling.  Here's a couple pics.
