ONF used to be a decent place to wheel, now it just seems like a waste of gas.

Yea, I know what ya mean....

Some of the feeling is due to 'neat areas' being closed; some of it's due to burn-out....like rodman dam sand pit is fun, once, twice,,,,notsure about 5th time

Still a lot ao good scenic trail riding....camping....being away from the other 3 million people that live in my county....

I guess it might be easier to swallow if there was a little more variety to the Florida wheeling scene. It kinda seems like charging admission to drive around on dirt roads. There is more fun to be had on things they don't "maintain". Oh well, it was a matter of time before they started charging somehing. Everything is a potential cash cow (or calf), I just wonder what benefits the full size 4-wheeler would see.

I am sure it's just ignorance on my part.

I was checking into this on the FL4WDA forum and it looks to be aimed at motorcycles and atvs only since licensed vehicles already pay a state registration fee.

Maybe dodging the authorities (after not paying of course) will offer some excitment to the forest runs. ;p
