Should I buy a croom pass?

I have a crf 230 dirt bike, Should I buy a croom pass or stick with the spot close to me. I found when I went to croom that i liked my friends quad better then the bike. I'm just tired of the northport trails and kind of want to go somewhere else a few times. I was planing on the yacapan but i heard its getting shut down. God I wish florida had some legal cool places or that croom had a one day pass because i dont have much money and will probably only use it 3 or 4 times at best.

Even if you only use the Croom pass 5 times a year, that comes out to $10 a day trip.
Pretty fair...and it helps show the state that riders are willing to pay to use a legal and regulated park to ride. They may see the need of opening additional type parks elswere in the state.
If you do use your local place...keep it quiet and out of public view. The Yucca pen will prolly be off limits for a while due to all the activity so close to Burnstore and houses. (yet there were hundreds of acres deeper in and away from public view or hearing)
be safe and take care

For a bike Croom isn't the best place. Too much sugar sand IMO. Try to find someplace closer to Northport. Or try down south. -Mark

I disagree. I was just there Thursday and there are alot of trails that are only wide enough for 2 wheels. In fact there were still makers out from the last FTR event there. Seemed like a fun course to ride a dirt bike.
I would also look at the cost per trip and consider that a day pass would cost at least $10, if not more. Whwn I go to Windrock the day passes are $15. A 3 day trip costs nearly as much as Croom.

I'd ride there any day of the week, sugar sand isn't a problem if you know how to ride in it. Although it probably way more fun on a racing bike due to the pit (jumps and stuff) and all the whoops (race bikes make blitzing natural whoops so easy). It all depends on if you want to. I still spend money every year to ride there allthough I only go there probably twice per pass just because its a nice break from ONF. I know some REALLY cool spots near my house that are still going only around 5-10 people know about these spots but I can't give out any information on them. If you look you can find some pretty cool spots, we've found a really cool pit and a spot were we have legal access once we asked so don't be discouraged from finding a new spot to ride, there are still a few gems out there.

Can you elaborate on your comment?
At least it is a legal place to ride. I would like to see other similiar type parks open in this state .
( If you build it, they will come)

Outlaw went to a tirade a few months back on how Croom sucks and they should put gravel down instead of sand and just went on and on, just generally annoying the he** out of everyone. Just a little tongue-in-cheek reminder to him.

I think the money is well worth to ride at Croom.And can be fun on both a four-wheeler or dirt bike

Thanks for the welcome GPS,
I should have searched before I asked. Its just I am ready to make my first trip to Croom. I will have to travel about two hours there. Prolly will try to make a weekend out of it. I just want to know as much as I can about the place. I guess since I am new to this, even a bad place is a good place for me.
