Is this were the holylands is? It was described as on the border of broward and plam beach line off of 27 in a post i just read.

where exactly do you ride in holylands? the map does not show much. What will I see when i get there?

The riding is to the west and south of your picture. It's flat, 99% sawgrass, a few trees and not that much mud left. It's very dry right now. Starting 1 May, you'll be legal to ride on the north side, where there are more trees. If you're in town this Saturday nite 7-8pm, meet us at the bridge where the paved road ends and you'll see trucks parked. PM me for more info.

MDPD has repeatedly told us that it's NOT illegal to ride there, unless you ride on the streets(which a lot of yo-yos do to get food and gas).

do you have a sport quad or a ute, if you have a sport quad bro, good luck, your best bet would be either 8th st or the hump never been to the hump but hear alot of mixed reviews, 8th st would be your best bet, you wont be bohtered by the law, might get a lil mud but nothing too bad right now

Well i went to 8th street this last sat. and had a good time. It was wet and muddy. It seems as thought this area is best suited for utility quads that like deep muddy water and suopy mud that when you walk through it will suck your shoes off. The riding in areas is very bumpy almost like the ground is worn down to rock and rutted out every where. Jus the same i had fun. This weekend I'm going to try the holeylands area. It would be great if someone could tell me when I get off of hwy 27 landmarks signs and where to park and ride. The link below i just found on another thread it might help you tell me where to go. I also posted a pic of it. Thanks

Yeah, that's holeylands. Go south on us27 and right after the Broward sign you'll see the levy on the right. Just drive down the levy for a few miles and you'll see a buncha cars parked at a bridge.

is what your speaking of palmers crossing on L-5?

AintSkeered · March 29, 2006, 09:14:36 PM

Exactly the spot!

not sure what part of 8th street you went to cause i was there on sunday with my lil girl and she rides a KFX50 and we both went all over that place and it was dry dry dry.

there was a crane at the intersection and a new road was being built were guys were riding because it was not open to traffic yet. we were parked in the dirt/gravel area by some woods se the marker on the pic below (parked here). we were closer to tamyami trail most of the time and road back to some gravel road and building. there ere some dry spots but a bunch of water.

thats the spot. we saw some water in the middle of the trail entrance but the further we went the dryer it was.

WAKORB · April 05, 2006, 10:48:04 PM

WELL........i rode holey lands and ws not impressed. It is flat pushed down sawgrass trails going no where but futhere into the saw grass. There is no contur to the land. I might be missing something here and i willing to hear you guys out because what I saw was not the best. The other thing is that for those of youwho only have there to ride please pick up your trash. It was not minutes after i got there that me and everyone there was warned to make sure to pick up your trash because complaints are coming in all the time about atv folks from the hunters and bird watchers said the state lawenforcement guy. Any ways tell me what i'm missing.

dirtygirl · April 08, 2006, 12:34:53 PM

WAKORB · April 11, 2006, 07:48:58 PM
