Anyone look at the Yucapan since the rain we got? I would think it would be flooded because we got like 5 inches where I am at.

Sweet. I'm thinking maybe Oct. 8th or 9th because it should be dry by than. Are you free to ride that weekend? |

Rode out there Saturday night (09/24/05) . There were some trails that you could not get down, but there were alot of dry trails as well. Most of the wet trails, had a high road you could take to get around the deep water. We had 13 bikes in our group, and went in the entrance off the end of Chiquita.

No problem, he can come, I am only 16 and I'm the only one in my family with a quad. It will be only my second time going out there so we could go as fast as we needed to with him. Do you want to go this Saturday or on Saturday oct. 8th? I should be open for either. |

I would be a little hestitant about riding dirt bikes out there just yet. You might want to wait about 3-4 weeks before going out there on a dirt bike.

We might have to wait till the 23rd of this month just to go riding. I think that would be as good as its gonna get if the rain holds off. If it doesnt stop raining it might be untill November untill it is dry enough.

I went out sunday and the water is rack deep in most places.If you know the area it is ridable on a stock 4x4 if you stay out of the cypress heads and the flag ponds.

Hey guys! I'm new to the forum and ATV's. I live within a half a mile from the pan and can just ride an ATV to the spot. I'm thinking of getting a new 06 rincon when they come out. Would the Rincon be a good choice for riding in the pan?
Thanks for the input!
Ernie

Hey! Welcome to the site ernie! I don't know much about the rincon but I'm sure that it would do just fine in the pan. What kind of ATV do you have now?

Thanks for the welcome Dr. Dirt! I don't have one now. Thats why I was thinking of the new rincon. I would get the 05 but for the same price, I migh as well wait. I thought about getting a used one, but I don't want any of the headaches of having it in pieces in my garage. I had enough of that in my jet ski days years ago. I'm looking forward to getting out there on the trails. The main thing that attracts me to getting an atv is that I can pull out of my garage and be there in 3 minutes or so. Great hobby without commiting myself to a whole day of trailering.

If you used to ride jet ski's then you might like a sport type quad rather than a utility because utilitys just dont have that "punch", but on the other hand a utility can go through almost anything thus meaning you can ride almost all year as opposed to only the winter months on a sport quad in the Pan.

Nah, I'm pretty sure I'll be happier with the utility. I've grown a little older since my jet ski days so I'm pretty happy with just putting down the trail and through the mud. I'd also like to take it out hunting on ocasion as well.
