Yucapan

[Dr.Dirt]

I went out to the Yucapan to look today and it still looks a little flooded but not even half as bad as it was about a month ago. I still havent got to ride out there yet but I went to a small (and I mean small) track like thing off Durden and rode there for a few mins. There are a couple of berms and a few jumps. It was kinda fun since I really havent got to ride much. Anyone seen that track thing that I'm talking about before? Its kinda in a back road area. Also, anyone been going to the Yucapan?

That used to be great back off of Durden. I haven't been back there in months but the last time I was there they were starting to build houses. How is it now?

[Dr.Dirt]

It was fun, I didnt see any houses when I was on the track thing but I was too busy riding to look. I know they were in the process of building some houses on a couple of streets but I dont remember if it was on the road with the track. Do you live in Cape Coral?

I broke my leg jumping back off Durden. Now I have a permanent reminder ( steel rod from ankle to my knee) of that jump. The Yucapan will stay wet until about mid October.

No, I live in St.Pete but used to ride there. I have a very close friend that lives off of Burntstore and Pine Island Rd.

Weird, I crashed my atv on one of the jumps yesterday too. I hit the jump wrong and my blaster did a steep nose dive and threw me off than fliped twice and landed on me ... Im alright though, all that happened is I got sand in my mouth, helmet, goggles, and all over me and my blaster. I jumped right back on and kept riding though. I forgot to post that when I made the original post.

[Dr.Dirt]

Do you guys know eachother or is it really just a coincidence?

how much riding is out there? Is there anywhere to park.
A group of us from naples might head out there this weekend

[Dr.Dirt]

I havent been out there yet but I hear its awesome for riding. I know people park just off the road by the firestation out there. I might be trying to head out there too this weekend.

 Haven't been out there in just about a year 

  Talk to Grgg T , I think he knows that area quite well. He should be able to give you some good pointers.

Why haven't you gone out there in a year? I was talking to Shotgun on AIM a couple of days ago and I might go out there to ride with him soon. Gregg T, how often do you ride in the 'pan'? Are you going anytime soon because I really want to go and maybe we could possibly meet up?

A group ride sounds great! When could we scedual one? Maybe Sunday Oct.16th if the rain holds off?

[DRWalum]

Maybe I'll head out Sun. or next weekend & do a little recon run to see how it is. It's been awfully DRY around here the past few weeks !!! I'm on a sport so I'll definately stay away from the DEEP spots   

  I'll let you guys know   

  DR Walum !!

[Dr.Dirt]

Yeah I ride sport also (Blaster). I was thinking about heading out Tomorrow or Sunday or Next weekend also. If its too flooded for me I can always just ride off Durden. Also I just got Google Earth and I looked at durden and I didnt know the paths went into the forest off durden. I got to ride back there too. I cant wait till I go!

[Jford]

I you go just to the end of Chiquita, you can park just after the little bridge on the left, and go into the Pan to the right. If you go all the way to the end of Chiquita, there is a house. The best place to park and ride, is off of Burnt store Rd, across from the Fire Station. When you go into the entrance off Chiquita, you have to be careful because if you don't know your way around, it will lead you to the old hill, which is supposed to be no treaspassing. Florida fish & Wildlife tends to frown on people there.

Alright, I just got back from the Yucapan and it was a blast! I pulled up at 7 pm or so and a big group of people with sport and utility bikes were just leaving. They said the trails werent flooded at all. I went out by myself and rode for about an hour (keep in mind this is my first time ever going out there) I was parked right in front of the Firestation. I saw about 10 diffrent people while I was riding. Mostly quads but there was a guy with a go-kart with a girl on a pw80. It wasnt that wet at all where I went but I didnt go in that far because I dont have a GPS. Come on yall, we all should set up a day to get together and ride.
