[Truegrit]

Never been...  Is it all flat with water holes for playing in the mud... or are there any areas where sport quads can play too??

I'd say it's pretty flooded right now so not so many play areas for sport quads, maybe even restrictions as to how far back you can make it with a sport quad due to mud and water. If you have a Utility in your group I'm sure they'll be more then happy to pull you through. Check out some of the other threads like Scottsmoore which is the same place as 5a.

Awesome, What time are you planning on starting the ride?

[FOREMANRON]

I WILL TRY TO GO IF SO IT WILL BE ON SUNDAY

[pb1995]

Looks like Sunday is when everyone is going, I am guessing about 10:00am is when I will get there. I don't sleep in! So whenever everyone can make it just come on.

[pb1995]

  I am picking up my 2000 Grizzly on Friday over in sarasota. I just bought it, so if it runs (LOL) I may truck it down.
  If it doesn't run....I may drive down just to check out what '5A' is.
  This will be my 1st ATV, so if anyone around daytona wants to give me some pointers..........shoot me an e-mail.
 

[fl750mudder]

On Highlifter.com they are saying 5a has no trespassing signs posted everywhere now!!!

[themensh]

so..has anyone been there this weekend?   What is the status of 'posted' signs?

Hope you didn't get it from Granny's.  I don't think any of those guys even ride quads.  They have a very nice shop but never have anything in stock that I need.  They are always trying to order crap for me when I go in.  If I wanted to order it and wait for it I'd do it my own on the net and save money.

Also every time I ask them a question they seem to have no freakin clue!  It's scary when I know more about my quad than they do.  I have a very limited knowledge.  Wish we could get a real yamaha dealership in Sarasota.

As for 5A, some friends of mine went over there riding today.  Haven't heard back from them yet but I'll let you know if I hear it's closed.

[FOREMANRON]

THAT WILL STINK IF IT IS CLOSED I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING FOR THE FIRST TIME. IF SO I WILL FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE TO RIDE

[themensh]

sent QT314 e-mail

(this counts as a BUMP...right?)

[pb1995]

So it looks like the signs are a posted by the hunters to try and keep us out, looks like it's something they do every year. Some people went riding this weekend there with no trouble and we are all still planning on going.

[Truegrit]

My buddies went in via Maytown road yesterday. No probs getting in. Only getting out since most of the bikes broke on the trail. They said it was the deepest thay hae ever seen it out there.

[qt314nfla]

I talked to my buddy as well.  He backed up what the last two have already said.

[themensh]

I am aiming for 10 AM Sunday then.....
if everything goes Ok picking up my quad.
  Thanks for your reply QT314  (may I call you that?  LOL)

[qt314nfla]

I've been called worse.  Actually most ppl call me that.  You're all good.  Have fun.

[BreathlessPerformance]

Where is 5A?  Been riding in Homestead and looking for some other places to ride.

[Brute Force]

5A is located on Osteen / Maytown in Osteen. Or easier found from I-95 to the Scottsmore/Oak Hill exit 5a (Brevard County).

[Ida_Mann]

I went out there with the 400 a while back, but I didn't go very far before the mud was a bit deep for my sport with no airbox lid ;-)

I like it because it's so close to where I live in deltona.

Id@

[Brute Force]

I've been out to a couple of places like Holopaw and Seaworld but love 5a the most since it's so close to home and only about a 20 min ride away.

[bbf]

i need to check this place out it has a lot of deep mud holes out there

[Brute Force]

After all the rain we have had lately I would say the wholes may be a little deep.

[themensh]

deep holes?    LOL...
   I pick up my quad on Friday.......and you expect  me to bury it in a mud hole?
(might look good in the movies)......
   I may be the guy that shows up but doesn't unload his bike...
although, my gorlfriend lefdt for a weeks vcacation today...and I
never told her I was getting a quad.  E-mail pictures would be QUITE the
way to tell her?   (I hope my NEW girlfriend likes quads! LOL)
   After the rain we got today (North of 5A)....if they got as much....I am sure it will be soupy.   (not something I am looking forward to learning in).
(I reserve the right to truck my ATV to 5A and NOT unload it.....just to practice
driving with it in the back of my truck)

[themensh]

so? What happened?    Instead of going to Scotsmore, I went to Big Scrub.
    I just got my 2000 Grizzly.......the tires (25")  look like originals and I did not want to take a chance at Scotsmore   (I am not a youngman! LOL)
  Ordered a 27" bigfoot kit today for it....plus a 2"lift....
  I hope all that showed up will chime in with what happened........hope everyone had a safe day with no troubles.
  If anyone sees a red grizzly ridden by a guy that looks like an A$$ho1e.......feell free to say hello.  I am not bad once you get to know me.
