Title: Delancey this past weekend
Post by: Prairie Master on February 21, 2006, 03:39:12 PM
Were any of you down at delancey this weekend.... I was and there was a large group of people with total disrespect for the area, (Riding considerable faster than the posted speed limit in the camp ground, doing "donuts" in the middle of roads and trails, and also traveling on marked roads at high rates of speed". I bring my family down there almost every weekend. Please respect the rules I'm tired of finding new places to ride due to the disrepect of others.

I would hope that it is noone here,,,I hate to generalize, but more likely it was out of towners here for the Daytona Speedweeks.

There was a club banner near the site where  they were all at. I thought it was them so I emailed the club, it turned out they had the misfortune of camping next to them.

There should have been either an FPO or LEO in the area. I was there also and I didn't see them on the numbered roads. I was there on Saturday. I stopped by the information table at lake delancy, got some information on the trail system.

Whenever there is a green truck Forest Truck there is always a radio in it. You could have asked the people at the information tent to call an Law Enforcement Officer or an Forest Patrol Officer, and let them know what you saw. They would have called someone, or stopped and talked to the person, to let them know they were not suppose to do that. I was close to the information tent also, I didn't see them go up the road, but I did see them on my way home.

I didn't see them during the times the  "tent was opened" I was out on the trail. the camp host was informing me about it that evening when I watched them flying up the roads. I informed the rangers on Sunday of the situation We left around 1:00 on Sunday

When you get a situation like that the volunteer trail rangers or the rangers in the green truck will help out. Sometimes we are there ears and eyes, they can't be everywhere. Together we will make this a better trail system, and it is always good to have some more help. Like it has been said many times, many hands lighten the load.
