You can ride out of BigScrub and West Lake Delancey. I don't know about cabins you can ride from.

There are only 2 campgrounds that you can ride your quad out of legally. 1 is Big Scrub, the other is West Delancey. The best riding from West Delancey is closed off due to high water. Camp at Big Scrub. You cannot ride an unlicensed vehicle (quad) on a numbered road in the Ocala Nat'l Forest. You will be cited if you are caught. There is no camping at Rodman.

Rodman has a campground but you can't ride your atvs to the trails. I think you can camp their as long as atvs stay on the trailer. NOT SURE THOUGH. Undecided

Take the Vamps. Put more air than usual in them to smooth out the ride alittle. Take extra water and gas and a compass is good to have as a backup to the GPS.

From Elite go west on hwy 316 about 6 miles till you reach nfs 88 go north approx 5 miles till you come to the seed orchard park on the west side of nfs 88. There are some nice trails all around there
