Jasper

[jjamesbar]

lets do Jasper. my weekends are committed for through the 12th of november after that im open. any inputs on dates.
this is a very unique area to florida, steep climbs, water crossings, rock outcroppings and some places have extremely soft sand. while the mileage is short, it will be one of the longest short rides youve been on.

*this is a challenging area to ride compared to ocala.

Does anybody know how to get there from the Suwannee River Camp Ground. I am thinking about going camping at the Suwannee River Camp Ground on 11/11 till 11/13 and was thinking about trying to ride Jasper that weekend while we were camped. It would be alot closer than coming from Orange Park.

   Jim,

Chillin'-
What, you're not bringin' the ambulance?!?   

[Chillinthemost]

I've got to ride my bike on some of these rides. I dont want to be know as the drunk guy in the Rhino. It actually depends on how many of my crew want to go. If momma goes I'll bring the Rhino and my bike. I'm worried about bring my big trailer with EVERYTHING because of parking.

[Hollywood]

We'll make room for everyone. Those of us with 4x4's can pull down in the river bed and park to leave room for everyone else.

   Jim,

Ask the desk person, but I think you go north from the camp ground to 6. Go right, past I-75, on to 41. Go right 100yds ahead on the right.

I love the place, will do my best to make this ride.

[rappy350]

Does anybody know how to get there from gainesville. If it is close enough for a day trip We will definetly come

[Chillinthemost]

Its probably only 1 hour north of Gainsville. Its only a few miles east of I75, I dont remember the exit #.

[Hollywood]

Since I know folks are going to start asking here's the directions.

from I10 go North on I75 to exit 460 take a right go about 3 miles till this road dead ends into Hwy 41 go right again the overpass is directly ahead of you just before the overpass you can get off the roadway on the right and there are a couple trails and spots under the overpass and on the other side of the powerlines that run along there to park. Just remember do not park on the right of way or you will get a ticket, there were signs out there that said no parking on right of way so long as you are behind them your OK. There is also a trail that leads down the powerlines from 6 just before the intersection that you can go down and park that takes you down by the overpass

[Moose]

Lets all remember this is one of the best places to ride in the state, lets keep it that way.

Take home all trash, so many bums don't, and they will close the access off if the place keeps looking like a dump. It has happened before.

Be carefull of any belongings left in the open. One young punk stole a gas can and rode down river to help a friend. We saw him riding with it while going back ourselves. When they got back to the overpass, no gas can. Busted. Well they went and got the can, paid Mike for the gas, and left shortly after. It's the only problem I have heard of, but you never know.

[gearhead400]

i'd love to make this ride. Moose you live close to me, how long of a drive is it?

[Prairie Master]
