hey z400, I don't have a trailer but my dad has a pick-up that we are puttin my quad in. do you have a trailer? if not we could still follow each other up. It is about a 4 hour drive from naples and at ocala forest campground it is 19 bucks a night and they have hot showers and water and electric on the camp sight. we were going to leave probably around 1 or 2 saturday afternoon. this'll be my first ride too.
Stand both of them up on their tails and roll.

I'm sure i'll show my lack of knowledge of the area right now, but I thought thats what all these plans were for. You guys know the area though so i'm just going with the flow.

Juggalo. I didn't read the part where your family was going with you. I've got a truck so I am all set. Are you in Naples now? How about some practice somewhere before Ocala? Just keep me informed on the travel plans. I might have a few friends interested. We can ride up there caravan style. You know like 4 or 5 trucks on the highway with quads in the back looks cool as hell! Alrighty keep in touch and Pm me if you want to ride somewhere around here.

If you like we could meet and park at the powerlines a coulple of miles east of hwy 19 on hwy 445. There are lots of smooth trails in that area.
How is the area for this parking...... we have a dually and trailer and don't want to get stuck in sugar sand ........( ppppsssssssssstttttttt Kurt ) heehee ..........is there any hard packed dirt ot pavememt ?? The area is great for parking either hard pack or grass. Cars pulling trailers park there so you should have no problem.

I'll be coming from Naples. Not sure what time. I'd like to leave at about 8 am that Sat. and ride for the rest of the day. I've never been to Ocala and would like to meet up with someone who knows where they are going.

If I can get my quad worked on before the ride I'll be there and I'm from Sarasota as well.

I've got some friends (muddbuggy and seebeejim) down here that help me learn to work on it. They have jobs and family too though. So hopefully I can get it worked out before then. I'm willing to take any help I can though. Even if it means working on it up there Saturday before riding Sunday.

Nothing wrong with it. I just need to give it some TLC. It's acting real sluggish. So I figure I need to clean the air filter, clean the carb, it needs rear brakes. I just need help learning how to do it all so I can eventually do it all myself. I'd love to get my 424 in the darn thing. That's been sitting in my truck now for 2 months. I also have a short in the electrical system w/ the 12 volt and spare night light. All that has to be done is the carb, filter and brakes to go on this ride.

Too bad you don't live near Gainesville. I'm pretty good with brakes and bearings, and I just put a winch on my Eiger. I could trade labor for a couple of adjustments.

Well for anybody that was wanting to or thinking about going up on saturday and staying the night, I will be going up in the morning getting there about noon or so since my dad managed to get that day off now. I plan on heading out to our agreed upon sunday spot with my parents around 2 or so just to piddle around on the quad and let my mom and pop try it out. So if anyone is getting there early and wants to meet us out there we'll be the 3 looking like we are on a sunday drive. This way sunday I will be more warmed up to go b@ll$ out and get a little crazy(but just a little).
