Mud Sweat and Gears in okeechobee
http://www.l-cross.com/index.html
Probably 5-6 bikes coming down with me.
i miss the last one i will be on this one
Well we will have to set a place and time to meet at MSG.
What day would be best ? How many going all weekend ?
I'll probably be there... I am starting to have withdrawals from not playin' in the mud.
Bart
ill be there w/ another dozen or so.... ;D
hoping to have my 29.5 Outlaws by then ;)
See you there Bart!
Im going to go
Well it has been suggested that some are going on Saturday morning, camping overnight and leaving on Sunday. If this is what people would like to do, we could meet near the turnpike and head out to MS&G as a group.
I'd like to go up there and check it out
Come on Asphalt. You will have a blast, guarenteed!
QuoteCome on Asphalt. You will have a blast, guarenteed!
NICE!!!!!
chris your are going
Not sure if ill be headin out from PSL or Orlando but I will definitley be there Saturday morning. What we ussually do is, everyone meets up at the stage at Noon for a trail ride. It is a good time to meet everyone and see where they are camping. A lot of us from on here camp just past the last set of gates to the right in the open field under the trees (just to the right of the stage). It is a blast and I wish it was every 2 weeks instead of once a month... -UCF
I just spoke w/ Steve at L-Cross. He said they are defintly have in DJ to play All types of music and requests. He is also trying to rig up a Kareoke machine. That should be interesting.
Meeting at noon near the stage is a good idea. I will be wearing my atvflorida .com Rodman Dam Group Ride t-shirt. Tony
Yo Bro... count me in and the family & friends. Camp @ the same place?

It sounds like you must have gotten your bike fixed.
I did...found the short in my headlight pod....replaced and re-ran the wires and put in a new circuit breaker (ignition circuit no less, the wire dug itself into some metal under the pod.)....all is good now!

You traitor, What, Are you gonna start hanging out with the mudders now? lol....
I might be with you soon. I'm thinking of getting a Griz in the near future.
Quotetalkin it over now ill have atleast 3 quads with me
you will love it dude! go!
yup, us mudders have all the fun! :)
that is the truth !!! ;)
I agree.
SSRancher c'mon!!! Glad you're coming man... It'll be one for the books I guarentee you!! Wanna race that S-10 against me? ;D
BCC.... Dont you have a Wedding to go to.
I am a new member. My husband and I love riding our Grizzly. We will be there this month as well as the next. Camping in March though (We heard David Allen Coe will be out there in March). Looking forward to meeting everyone.. See you in two weeks!
Andrea
you won't regret going, 1 of the best times i've had in a while. don't know if i will make feb, but definately be their in march
We have gone out there quite a few times. Never camped out there though. Looking forward to it!
Nos- No weddings this month. I do have one the weekend before the march event, but then no more weddings in my future. Looking forward to it!!
so am i never bin to one
out there, them Outlaws will rock! riding thru the mud to the island is fun! and the mud in general!
they will come in real handy there! i'll still have to keep in mind to stay back at least 100yards behind ya when ya start slingin the mud! :D
Ive been told by a few friends that all the trucks take over out there and the ruts are so bad that 4 wheelers cant go in them.
So what is it like with the trucks out there
Its not bad with the trucks. If your running stocker it can be tricky, but as long as you know how to ride you'll be alright. With your laws, I would not sweat it at all.
Cool, yeah it sounds like its a good place to ride.
just picked up my EDL's tonight im ready hehe
so who all is camping? Last month I met a few of you's, and the camp site to the right of the stage was ideal. Wont camp next to the pit!
Lets all arrange in a certain area. Nos u going this month! Should have my new machine! look forward to it.
-Shadow
Ill be campin...same place as last time to the right of the stage...cant wait!
i am camping have no idear where

I will be their early sat morning. I have to take my work trailer to get my bikes there, and u cant miss my trailer."SHADOWEN TILE" Hope every one will gang up and lets shindigit!
What kind of turn out do they have for the MS&G? Also, are there any good trails to ride there? My husband and some friends went down last month to check it out and said there is mostly just a couple real big muddy holes but they didn't do any trails. We were thinking about ditching the idea of going. But if it's a real hoot, we can still come! We love the mud! Just wondering if it gets the same kind of crowd as the Rabbit or Pumpkin runs....???
Its not as big as the Pumpkin Run. There are only 100 bikes or so. There are organized trail rides a couple times a day, that take you around the back of the property. For the most part it is just the big mud pits, but its still fun.
Hey Asphalt- The wedding reference is because I have been attending them a lot recently. Not for work, just a lot of friends gettin hitched. Nos just likes to bust my chops about it... I sell industrial rubber products for a living. Conveyor belt, hose, gasket materials, etc.

Oh, ok I though you were in the event industry
Thanks for the info Truegrit. It's a long haul for us to Okeechobee. We will probably just camp out at 5A that weekend or at the campground that is right there near it. There are all kinds of trails there and we have a good time. Besides, the Rabbit Run will be coming up, just hope it isn't as DUSTY as last year!! UGH! I can take the mud and water all day but can't STAND all that dust!
are you aloowed to ride where ever you want or d you got to saty in the mud pits also any more deatels i would need to know
U may ride around abit but mud is the thing there. A medic takes people to the back property on a trail ride. I ride awhile watch the trucks awhile then ride some more.Its a good time, bring some friends. check out www.l-cross.com and look @ the video!!! U will see what it is about. U see some big powerfull expensive trucks coming through there.
Oh yeah, NO glass,guns, or attitudes!!

Im not going to make it to this one but Ill be at next months MSG its going to be a good one dont miss it.
I'll be out there... same spot.... i got another video to finish...
Shadowman...get your new bike?
Looks good for me too.
What is the better day to go Saturday or Sunday
That question is sort of like which of your kids do you like best. Both have their fine points.
I guess they both have there ups and downs
I like Saturday much better...Sunday everyone is tired and planning on when they are gonna head home (not to say Sunday isnt fun though).
This friday I go pick up my new toy! Been busy, I am checking out a new place in Sebastian this weekend I will call ya .

Hey Yall. I haven't been on here for quite some time. I haven't even been on my bike since those damn storms. I haven't been to MS&G's yet but we have a big group going. 5 or 6 bikes, 5 trucks, 1 buggy and a whole lot of cold beverages. ;D Were going to stay Sat. night and leave around noon on sun. We are all planing on meeting up at FlyingJ in Ft. Pierce around 8:30 9:00. I'll try to be at the stage at noon to go on a trail ride, sounds like fun. Hey BCC. You still have that blue chevy?
Myself and quite a few from FloridaATV.com are planning on heading down there, camping friday night, sat and heading home sunday some time. Quads plus a truck. Looking forward to seeing everyone again and having a Great time.

???YEAH,WE HAD THE SAME PROBELM.THANK GOD WE FOUND OUR WAY!!!!!YES AS ALWAYS IT WAS A BLAST!!!!!!IT WAS NICE TO SEE NOS,ZIN,BIGDOG,AND IM SORRY IF I HAVE FORGOTTEN ANYONE ELSE IT WAS SO MUCH FUN.THANKS FOR THAT NICE GINTEL MAN THAT PULLED ME OUT!
it kind of get boring ride thur the same mud holes after awhile, can you ride on the trail that goes thur the gate and down to the river, or do you have to wait for the trail ride that seems to happen once a day :-/. the last time i was there was dec
QuoteYunt.... Isnt that strap on the wrong end of a Polaris. ROFL
No its not, how can you pull others out with it attached to the front. HAHA
went yesterday had a blast waiting to go again today....had to get pulled out once ??? not to bad with just stock tires...
first time there had a blast that some nasty mud out there but worth the trip and yes got stuck good
Once again the trail rides were not very exciting. But I guess that is what we should expect from a trail ride. It is not a mud ride. Its a shame that we are no longer allowed to play in those mud/water holes. I enjoyed the variety.
I thought the mud was great in the big pit thick and soupy. Perfect conditions. It only got better the later it got and the more water that was added.
Can't wait for March and the David Allen Coe concert.
We had a great time riding and meeting Little Redneck Girl, Alex (her hubby), Zin, Big Dog, Bart and a few others. Went with my friends Grizzlysp, Runkoutlaw/Jessie (his girl) and Wilburz. Well I got stuck a few times and had to be winched out by my friends and strangers. It was a great time. I can't wait until next month.
Here is the only pic that I can post because of the no helmet rule. Rnkoutlaw just chilling !!
I guess I stopped and chatted w/ Rnkoutlaw at the "mudhole" myself on the noon trail ride. I had the red '05 Foreman with the Laws&Zillas..
Had a great time up there, I liked how the water was pumped in so we always had some mud to play in.
I got to meet some new people,
Sheldon and Don it was great to meet you hope we can ride again.
Tony thanks for buying food, and the macaroni salad was kick ass.
P.s next time we will just lite a tree on fire.
I too had a good time. The trail ride does seem to be a little boring after the first time. I wish I could have met some more people. Please don't be shy. I really am an a-hole!
I did meet 3 folks for the first time and would like to thank each one of them. Thanks Sheldon,Robert and Jessica. It was an honor to meet such nice folks and be able to share some stories and plow through some gravy with them! Oh yah that dude Custom and his boy are cool too. :)
P.S. Zin is a crazy S.O.B!
HEY NOW!!! we're all a lil crazy!! some of us just more than others...
I too..had one heck of a time... and with David allen coe comming next month..ya gotta have a lil crazy in ya to fit in.
was great seeing everyone...and look forward to March... cya in the mud!!!
z|n
heres the only pic I can post... until Da_mtg_man goes to bed. HAHAHAHA!!!
lol.... You're good with photoshop aren't you.... ;)
do alot of sport atvs go and is there any place whit a lot of water whit no mud like 2 to 3 feet deep
there was a few sport bikes and a 2 wheeler going threw the mud
By the end of the day, every bit (thats passable) of water has been churned into a milkshake, between the ATVs and trucks
yes it was
It was hard to get through the mud by the end of the day.
The challenge makes it more fun.
The mud is fun until you get it inside your boots! Guess I need some taller boots.
I had a good time out there
We Had a great time too. Got stuck really bad once but that was it. Hopefully it wont be as dusty next month. Cant wait for David Allen Coe. Lots of us going next month!
Yeah I think there are going to be alot of people out there next mounth, and I think half of them will be on different kinds of bikes, the kind of bikes that dont go in the mud.
i bet you they will try
Yeah its gonna be pretty crazy out there. Im gonna try to get there friday night in hope to find a good spot to set up camp. Cant wait!
wheres the best place to camp ? is it wide open or are there some shade trees to park under? can't wait to go ill be able to try out my newest mods to my grizzly ! outlaw clutch kit , bayou snorkel ,and water temp gadge from high lifter ..gunna be fun gettin stuck
ill be on a camo grizzly with a blue cooled full of the mr budlites! MY friend will also be trying out his project buggy that just got 1 ton running gear and 6 '6" tractor tires...seeya there ;D
they got a website:
http://www.l-cross.com/index.html
you can camp anywhere you want. I would imagine people will be camping by the stage. If you camp in the back you will get a little more privacy and quietness. The place is wideopen with some palm trees and oaks around.
Cant camp next to the stage. That whole area is going to be reserved for Harley riders Rodeo:( So must be in back or around the pit.
-shadow
Does anyone know what this "rodeo" is gonna be??
Not sure what this rodeo is about. I have a few friends that are bringing their Harleys out there though.
Hmmm.... guess they will just be there for the party, huh? We are only a few miles from the Iron Horse, David Alan Coe will be there all week. We'll see enough of him by MS&G but it should still be a fun time.
But, we at least finally decided to go. But, we are gonna head over early Saturday morning, hang all day and evening then go to a motel and get a shower! Don't know if we will go back Sunday a.m. or head home. Guess it will depend on our condition!!! There will be 6 of us staying at the hotel and another 6 or 8 camping at L-Cross. Hope we get to meet some of ya'll there!!!
I plan on going Friday morning. I will be camping in the back.
you're too hard core dog! You bringing the whole clan?
How about the north west quadrent up against the tree line. there is room for at least 20-30 camps . Its not to close to the pit, but yet an area where every one can fit.
Wow 14 days left!!! I hope to see some harleys muddin!!
-shadow
that northwest quadrant is pretty crazy dude!
need to get this back to the top now that we only have a week to go. ;D
I can't wait
YYYEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAWWWWW!!!! One week left.
Hey, a few questions...
night rides aloud?
camp fires aloud?
oh yeah, finally remembered the last one... is anyone from the atvflorida website going to be there selling atvflorida bumperstickers?
One more thing... is everyone making sure to tune their livers up for next weekend? ;D
Night rides? Most deffinatly!
Camp fires? YES
Beer ? Does a bear sh** in woods?
Liver? crying already!
Attitudes? NO
Got Moon Shine???
Just a heads up! No glass is allowed
they will take your bottle, must be in plastic.
they will search your truck inside and out, under seats, and in trailers. Deffinatly no pistolas!

Im looking forward to this. Just hope the flu bug doesnt catch me again this time. Also having a potluck cookout saturday before the Coe concert. Bring somthing to toss on the fire.

well, as an atvflorida member I was going to see if two more popups could fit in your camp area...but after reading the no sleeping rule...maybe we'll just hide in a corner somewhere. ;D
on that note... do you just find a nice tree and throw your stake down, or are there actual designated camping areas. I'd hate to set camp up only to find out I'm roadblocking a trail.
Set up wherever you find room (not designated). The roads are pretty obvious, don't sweat it.
Look for the signs, toss your tent down and dont worry about Zins rules. We out number him, hes old, fat, and out of shape. Short of him running us over with his MaD PrAiRiE we should be safe from his rules. hehe.
I have to pace myself.
Were gonna have a GREAT time.
Digitalsniper
No sleep on friday night? The last time he tried that, he slept all day saturday! I will.... excuse methe Captain will be sleeping friday night. At least for a couple of hours!! I am dying...Friday can't get here fast enough.
Bart
Hey Bart, what time you rollin out on friday? Im in PSL all week so im headin out from here. I was thinkin about leavin somewhat early on friday, and Casey is gonna head down from Orlando and meet me there friday evening. I just want to make sure i get a good camp spot... I cant wait, hopefully the weather will cooperate.
according to weather.com the weather for this weekend is suppose to be nice and some what hot. so that will be nice! See ya all Saturday morning, hope to still be able to find a good camping spot!
Hey!! Theres no "z|n" rule... on another site I was raggin on a couple of the guys for crashing at 11pm on "saturday" night... I'm old but I ain't dead!! heck the whole place got quiet early last month.... I am positive that will not be a problem this month.... You do your thing...I'll do mine.
Hey I just heard a commercial on Wave 92.7 for Mud Sweat and Gears!! 8)
they have been advertising MSG all month on 92.7.. probably going to be a big turn out!
Hey Bart I'm loading up on Thursday night and heading to your house Friday at around 7am. I should be there around 8:30 or so. Then the party begins. Two more sleepless nights to go.
looks like i'll be there saturday sometime.
i'll try to get there before 3pm this time :)
Dude- You're gonna have to wake me up when you get there SS! See ya in two days!!
Bart
Anyone know what time the concerts will start? Just curious :)
i am ready i just wish it was friday already be around 3
I heard Coe was saturday at 10pm.
I dont remember who i heard it from, or where i read it at, but thats what i have in my head (what little space there is there...)
See ya Friday night at the *atv.com camp hehe

I know that some areas they do not work. They do not work at ONF on the Rodman Dam Ride. They do work at M,S&G.
16 hrs until we leave. I am so ready.
so am i
are you aloud to ride into the night. i'm thinking about going out there for a little. I have off tomorrow and i have to work saturday morning at 10 so i can ride friday and leave at like 10 at night. Question is i don't wanna go there and ride until sundown and not ride anymore. So can we ride at night and will you guys be doing the same cause i don't wanna ride by myself.
you can ride ALL night. We rode till after 11 last time and went back to camp and that ended it (the tent looked too good. hehe).
They also had a guided tour night ride on the trails (at least i heard that.).
Digitalsniper [smiley=drive.gif]
i checked the site out but it doesn't say anything for a day price just the weekend price. is there a day price.
Only 4hrs. to go.
Loaded and leaving ;D ;D [smiley=drive.gif] [smiley=ThumbsUp.gif] [smiley=Clap.gif] [smiley=Clap.gif] [smiley=Clap.gif]
alright i'm heading out. i'll c-ya in a few and most tonight.
Some friends of mine pulled in a while ago and said it's already jam packed! WOO HOO!
Wow........I went,got there around 10:30am Sat......Can you say...overcrowded!
I cant say that I didnt have fun,but think it would be a whole ot more fun with about half the people,anyone know a head count,I heard rumors of around 15,000,i know it sure seemed like that,I asked one of the security guys if they were prepared fior that kinda crowd,and he said NO WAY,I know it was Mudfest,but man did I see alot of people(mainly punks around the age of 18-20 give or take) with no respect to other peoples property,"bumping" into other peoples trucks,like if there bike,truck,buggy,whatever was 4ft wide and the space they wanted to go through was 3 3/4 wide,they went anyway.......I guess one should expect that at an event that was so close to out of control.....that I think u might as well just say it was!
Would I go back......well yeah probably so,will definatly go back when their isnt a nat'l band and hopefully the crowd is half the size!
My group decided to get the hell out of there about 7pm,and on the way out we were pretty much told to go a way that was d**n near impassable,the mud was so nasty,my grizz made it through several times,towed a few pople out and was going back for the last one in our group when it finally happened........I broke an axle.....knew it would happen sooner or later...stock axles and 29.5's dont mix.........Just ordered Gorilla axles about 20 mins ago..so that wont happen again!
Well we got there around 3 p.m. friday and it was getting pretty full. We had a great time but it was beyond belief. The place was packed to the point you could not move at times. I can not wait until next month when it is not so busy. They opened all the gates and you could ride throughout the property. We had an awesome time. This is a learning experience for L-Cross and next time they will be better prepared. I think things went well for the amount of people that were there. What a way to spend the weekend, with friends.
I did do something that I have never done before. I winched out a newer Harley from the mud hole. It was shamefull what the owner of this bike did to it. He went into the hole and let it fall on it's side. Then I winched it out of the hole.
That Harley,was it a rust or burnt orange and silver,I saw a guy earlier in the day,like around 1pm riding around in an area that the only way he could have got there was to go through a mudhole,what an idiot.......I've got a Harley(which is for sale,2001 raodking classic)and that was not a place for a Harley!!! Hope you drug out while it was still laying on it's side!!!
Here is a pic of a very large buggy.

Yeah, the Harley was a maroonish color. I winched it out very carefully but he could have cared less. I used a strap around the forks so I would not scratch it. He said just put the cable around them. I would not do that.
Here is a funny pic of two girls trying to get the winch cable to the tree.

thanx, I have my own server tho...but no intention of postin a lot..no helmets and crazy stuff like that..the place was a zoo...
some of these are not so great
front parking area/line to get in from a distance.
lot o swamp buggies n trucks in the mud.
I was just here thinking about all the gas that was used out there this weekend. Alot of $$$$$$$$$ Oh, can't forget those diesels. I did not want to leave.
This girls pants were so muddy that she had to keep pulling them up. The girls and thier family were funny to watch. They were trying to get the 4wheelers out of the mud.
oh ya, noone died as the rumor mill was going around, some dude was working on a swampbuggy, and it exploded, when that happened, he jumped back, and fell into the road where a truck ran him over...he's in critical condition into the hospital ..as I am told.
(No clue as to who it was...just something that happened out there....15-20k people, crazy things are gonna happen.)
apparenty at least 3 vehicles went up in flames, I saw a jeep that was toasty, the owner said he was in it when it caught..but he was ok, the jeep was crispy...

This is a pic of Customs camping buddy! ;D
The guy has a real live chicken on his head!
This is a shot of the trail they were making all four wheelers use to get out to the front. They would only let trucks through the gate at one point. Needless to say I did not go that way.
I got stuck there once...in the gate..like a friggin madhouse, a traffic jam. that really sucked big time. Imagine 2 or 300 bikes waiting to go thru there, in different directions,first come first served....

Yes my group got stuck in that too. A total mad house. It go tto the point where we just rode to the hole and stopped to watch, there was little room to play in. The trucks and buggies don't show any regard for the ATVs. I saw quite a few of them hit ATVs. Including one in my group.
it was so packed, trying to get around just sucked...
was quite fun on sunday rolling the the back area instead of hanging out near the mudpits..
next time I go, hopefully it wont be as chaotic!
Boys and Girls... That was the most insane weekend I have ever experienced. And I never even saw most of you! Way too many people out there. It was great on friday, but by saturday it was so crowded you couldn't go anywhere without waiting in line, or traversing a deep mud hole... I doubt I'll roll out for another big concert like that. It was a fun experience, but I hate crowds with a passion. Had a blast though.

Yo BCC, Had a blast like always. Even though I locked the keys in my truck Friday, and froze my A$$ off that night. Sheldon and Zin, it was nice meeting you and thanks for the help. I think Sunday was the best day of riding that I did there. The pastures in the back were a blast to ride. Now I'm going to clean the bike and fix the winch that broke. Don't buy the wireless winch it not too kind to mud three days straight.
Stephan
That hole was nasty,with a capitol N,I went through there around 6:30pm Sat to leave....I got through,but no one else in my group did,pulled them out and the last one i was going to get i broke my axle,still got out in 2wd,but my god that hole was nasty

You had to use the gate west of the mudhole to go to the front. It was not hard to get through. Wilburz and I went back and forth several times. That gate near the wash area was nasty !!!

I wish I was there to see the Harley try to make it through the mud! The picture is funny but it would have been better to see in person. I think that was half of the hype of this event for me...waiting to see if a drunk biker would test out the mud (not that I'd do it myself if I had a Harley). Fun times for all!
The funiest part of that bike getting stuck was once Custom winched him out of the hole the bikers battery was dead and he could not start his bike to move it and the great big super duty yellow paramedic/trail cop dude pulled up behind him and honk his air horn, then pulled along side of the biker, the biker then called him f-in lazy and then the big truck guy jumped out and chewed the biker out. Pretty funny to listen to that exchange.
Did anyone actually go to the Biker rodeo and watch?? We were having too much fun in the mud and forgot.
I feel that the harley dude was on serious drugs. His friends told us that he also dropped the bike at the rodeo. I would have to say that the best time was riding in the back with friends and my wife. I am ready and my wife wants to go more than I could have imagined.
Could care less about the biker rodeo. I would say the rodeo was a flop. Hopefully they realize that mudding is there source of income and cater to us and not some chromed up loud HD! Loved it none the less, opening the back up was a smart move gave everybody a place to spread out.
