Sorry you can't make it kountry23.
 
Hey patches any word on the repair ?

 Monkeyonashovel hope you can make.

So far it looks like a small ride.

No go until next week.

K_man don't worry about gas too much. If you start with a full tank you should be good for at least 50 miles plus. Most atvs seem to get around 20 miles per gal.  I'll carry an extra gal just in case. But we are seldom out of reach of the truck. Just bring something to drink and snacks . I'll try to get us back to the truck for lunch. Then you can decide if you want to ride more or not. Having extra gas at the truck is always a good idea. And remember it's gonna be chilly.
 My wife will not be making this ride. But she's already bugging to go riding soon.

 I think patches is afraid if the cold.   J/K.   Post up when you are ready to ride. Seems everyone is broke down or working.

I'm not going to be able to make it. Maybe next time.

Nah I sweat like a pig at 60 degrees and up, under 60 I am dry.

 Great ride today ! It was about 28 degrees when we started and 55 and rain at the end. It was real nice meeting K-man and his wife. We will have ride together again soon. Thanks for riding. I enjoyed the company.
  That Can-Am Commander performed great. And Kman threaded it down the trails like a pro.
  Not a lot of traffic today. They are widening Longleaf Trail north of Delancy West Campground. It was a bit rough. Keep this in mind when riding.

Where are the pics?

[1Scorpion]

Where are the pics?

I didn't even bring a camera.  My photographer (aka Thunderdually) is M.I.A..  I don't even know how to post them anyways. Next time you'll be there so will be covered. I think most people would have enjoyed the ride. We were so busy riding there was little time for pics. Sorry.  
 Any idea when you Quad will be ready for action ?

[patches206]

Thunderdually you out there.    It will be fixed next week but the next two or three weekends are booked.

[1Scorpion]

  It will be fixed next week but the next two or three weekends are booked.

When your sure just post up. Once a month to Ocala is my goal. I would like to go every weekend ,but it's too far for that.
 If I had a rig like Thunderdually I would go for the weekend. I'm going to check an enclosed trailer today. And then I'll check out some tents. Tents are cheaper. I'm not fond of camping. The campground off of the Hog Valley trail looks good. They have power and showers. But I'll sure miss my bed.

[patches206]

Air mattress!   or

Roland, how many miles did you end up with?

I'll try to make the next ride, but it has to be warmer than that.

Not as many as we wanted. it rained on the 30 mins. or so. We were going to refuel and head back out but we were wet. No need and getting cols too.

Roland,

We look forward to riding with you again. Hope your wife can make it next time.

I'm glad you both enjoyed it. It was my pleasure to guide and thank your wife for catching that turn I missed. And yes we'll do it again.

[1Scorpion]

 As for a toy hauler. It looks like I'll be tenting it for a while.  I looked at a new enclosed utility trailer. They are out off my reach for now. I'll keep looking for a good used one.

[patches206]

We all have to do a camp weekend soon.

We all have to do a camp weekend soon.

SOON alright as soon as it warms up.  But it's a great suggestion. How about the Lake Ockawahhha or how ever you spell campground. They got power for my electric blanket .

[patches206]

Thats the beer talking!    Warm this hot out now.
