Any Trail Rides in S. Florida?

[soberman001]

Gents, I finally have my LC set up and was looking for a place to test her out. Is there anywhere to go in S. Florida that is near Ft. Lauderdale/Miami? I don't want to drive 3hours to Orlando.

I don't have a winch so nothing too deep in the mud.

Thanks

I have done the Bear Island Unit twice out in Big Cypress in the Dry Season. http://www.fl-dof.com/forest_recreation/ohv_public.html It costs $50 bucks for the OHV License and truck inspection/permit. The trails are not very chalenging, but it is south FL off road. I did it at the stock hight on 33's without any difficulty at all. That is where I carefully installed my first set of off road pinstripes on the cruiser. I am sure it gets more challenging in the wet season, but i'd take scratches over mud any day. IH8MUD. Let me know if you want me to come up. I'd go again. I have always been a little nervous to hit it in the wet season with my buddies. I just can't visualize a Wrangler having enough A$$ to pull out the heavy UZJ100.

PS my lift came in yesterday from Slee! Big Cypress would be a good place for a shakedown mission before I take this trip to Morris Mountain in AL. I will probably install it next week.

Up in Ocala today we had *much* fun. Come on up for the next one. 4 hours drive from Miami...

When is the next one in Ocala? How do I get plugged into the Ocala Schedule?

You can check the NFC website for posts. It will probably be in another month or two.
