hey guys, My son and I ride here in the Tampa/Brandon area he's raced a couple of times at Bartow. Also ridden the track at Dade City. He rides with several other kids, so far I'm the only dad out there with them, but a couple of others are talking about it. we'll see...

Let me know if you guys want to get some organized ride together. I should be able to ride again in about 3 days, recovering from a chest wall strain I got while trying to clear a 40 foot step down at Bartow :bang:

[sparkysakitas]

ok what ya have in mind haj ?

 

[HajiWasAPunk]

I really don't know what other ppl do for "organized rides" but it sounds like fun. I was thinking croom or something too like you mentioned sparky? I'm thinking something where maybe we could even camp one night or something would be cool?

 

[sparkysakitas]

we could do a ocala trip can camp there to
i think a couple east coast guys are up for that
until i get croom stickers i can only really ride at the little mudhole area that i have been riding its not that big but its not to bad of a place to ride(well its a place to ride lol)

 

[HajiWasAPunk]

is Croom in Ocala? I've never been there, what kind of sticker do you need? Ocala sounds good though, we might even be able to get some of the SC and GA ppl to come down?

 

[sparkysakitas]

no croom is in brooksville at sr 50 and i75 it is about a 2000+acre off road park bikes and atv's only

Has anyone been to the MXtreme Motorsports Park in Merritt Island? I have seen tracklistings for it but no reviews or anyone that has actually been there. I live in Stuart just north of WPB and there is nowhere to ride within an hour. Everyhting is 2 hours. Supposedly St. Lucie County is buildign a track and Moroso is building a track. I will try to keep everyone up to date of the progress.

 

[Simulcaster]

Well, after some digging this is the current situation:

MXtreme Motorsports is not open yet and I have been put on the notify when ready list.

St. Lucie County Fairgrounds track has not even made in front of hyte County Commisioners yet.....could be a year or more.

Moroso they have a website but nothing on it..still under construction.

I guess it's back to the road at 2.89 a gallon for diesel.

 

[crimecleaner]

I ride Sunshine MX in Pinellas county. Great track. I just saw this new one that opened up in lakeland. http://www.quicktrackmx.com/directions.html

Looks pretty cool. Gonna check it out in a couple weeks. Anybody ridden there?

 

[Simulcaster]

CC, Thanks for chiming in. I found Quick Track also... Hard Rock seems like the place to go for an overnighter.... They have Mx Track, SX Track, Rollercoaster Track, Sand Track, Tons of trails and a Pee Wee Track. Camping on site sounds liek a perfect weekend to me. If you hit any of these spots please give a review.

Hey Simulcaster I live in Stuart and ride out at the plantbamboo com off of 714 west. Its not great but its legal and If you have a ATV its even better (lots of mud).
