Breathless...I don't know if we've chosen a meeting place yet.  Either Rodman dam or Eurika dam...it's about a 4-5 hour trip either way.  There are directions to Eurika on the first page of this post:

Never been to Rodman, but it's not far from Eurika.  I'm headed up Friday night, so you're welcome to follow, but I'm staying at my parents which is about 45 minutes south of the ride.

OR, give me one of those high performance corvettes you build, and I'll rent a limo and drive you there personally 

p.s. I pass one of your truck/trailers fairly often on stirling road in davie...nice rig you got there.

[BreathlessPerformance]

Thanks for the compliment on our rig and Corvettes. I think I will try to make the ride. I have a motorhome that I can stay in, do you think we can park it in that area.

Ernie,

can't help you with that...never stayed overnight up there.  there's a bunch of people on the site that can help with that.  you probably won't be able to stay at the parking area for Eurika though,

Can someone send or post some info on eureka??? Where is it , how to get there etc... etc...
THANX FOLKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chillinthemost]

Directions from I75.
  Get off exit 358 go east to hwy301, go north on 301 to hyw 329 look for the sign that says Sparr there is a Kangaroo gas station on the corner, turn right. Take 329 into Sparr there is a flashing red light, that is hyw200, go straight through light and follow that road until it dead ends into hyw316 turn right onto 316 and that will take you to Ft. McCoy go throu Ft. McCoy and you will cross a BIG TALL bridge. Take the first left after the bridge onto N.E. 160th then about 1/2 to 1 mile down turn left onto 157th and you're there.
  These are the directions I posted for the Eureka ride last weekend and everyone made it there.

[Chillinthemost]

Those are the directions to Eureka. I like it better than Rodman.

Breathless, there is a campground a couple miles away, I'll get the # for you.

Hi
New here, but like what I see so far. I have two boys, but so far only one quad, trx 90. If I get my 4yo old a 50 would this ride be to much for a beginner? He has always riden with me before.....

Trying to sell my rice bike so I can get two quads 50 and 300.

[Chillinthemost]

My 4yr. old will be on a 50 and I'm leading the trail ride so bring em. I'll be leading on a yfz riding in first and maybe second gear and my wife will probably be at the back on the Rhino. When we are at the pit at the beginning and end of the day the older more experienced kids and dads can cut loose but my goal for this ride is to make it fun for everyone.

[BIGWORM3699 ( ECP RACING)]

Chillin is a great leader on the trail. We have a great system down to assure every one is safe and has a great time. 

[450RRRR]

hey chillin. have we come up with a time to meet yet.and what do you think is the best way to handle the food.we are bringing one ute with us so we can carry in alot more food this time.and it doesnt sound like we are going to need gas. my little nephew cant wait..he has called 3 times to make sure he has what he needs..

[Chillinthemost]

I'll take care of the food ( basic bbq stuff, chicken, dogs, burgers) if you can carry a cooler you can bring some drinks. If we meet at Eureka at 9 the kids could ride there for a while. It is probably an hour ride to my place so if we head that way by 10 we would be there by 11-11:30 then fire up the grill and eat by 1:00 then head back out on the trail. Sound like a plan?

[BIGWORM3699 ( ECP RACING)]

Oh yea thats sounds like the plan, After the bbq lets go to the other secret pit.

[450RRRR]

hey chillin maybe we need to ask for a basic head count to get an idea what we will need..we will have 4 ,3 adults and one child under 12.

We have a total of three, 2 adults and 1 child

[Chillinthemost]

I figure by the first of next week those that can or cant go will know for sure by then and we'll tally them up and make a trip to Sams. Bigworm that secret pit is probably not a good place to go anymore, kinda risky. If you want to do that kind of riding PM me your # I may go somewhere like that this Sat.
