The fact is, it is a great riding spot for only a small handful of people in our sport who enjoy deep muck, it is the yahoos on stolen sport bikes on the levy that are pissing everyone off. That is the problem IMO and should be addressed.

Exactly!!!

Oh my lord, I just had to rip the wires from a lamp to defribulate my heart, which stopped when I realised AO agreed with something I said!! That was a close one.

Good thing I kept the lamp cord handy.

[4MANFREAK]

 I ride this place regular and have seen all the idiots in action for many years. "PICK UP YOUR TRASH & DON"T DRIVE LIKE AN :M. There are alot of people who enjoy riding out there and would like to keep it that way.

[MATT1969]

You ain't kidding about that, and they are usually on a buggy or half track. At least anyone you meet beyond the first camp is guaranteed to be cool. 

They really should drop the levy speed limit to 10 MPH and enforce it hard, I believe that would satisfy everyone except the folks trashing the place. It is funny, you can ride from the parking lot to the buggy bridge and back and not find two pieces of trash, yet if you look in the parking lot or back by the lake you could fill a dumptruck....

I know!

I've actually yet to see a buggy out there.  I've seen airboats and tracks all the time, just not buggies yet.

[300 quadrunner]

no kidding, them damn youngins on sport quads should be contained to another area, jus give em a medium size area wher they can tear they're own riding area and leave us responsible riders to fend for ourselves, i think FWC would realize we all arent there to destroy our evergaldes

[jrpro130]

I mean I haven't heard anything that it's DEFINETLY closing up for rec. use, but it could be true...anyone have any updates

[300 quadrunner]

if they close HL i will go to the gate, naked holding a sign saying, "you have stolen my life" lmao

haha, I'll be right there too, except not naked...I'll take my shirt off, but not my pants...thats a little much

If it does close, there will be some protesting going on for sure. 



I don't think the state relizes what happens when you cut off the only legal riding spot from a bunch of rednecks...it's not pretty

[300 quadrunner]

we'll all be sitting off of 27 outside of holeylands with a fire and beer singing "got mud" til FWC hauls us all to jail for public intoxication :drink.gif :drink.gif :drink.gif :drink.gif :drink.gif

I believe it was only 2 voters with a nay vote AND IT PASSED I say not wait til it closes Noise should be done know before it passes I think hunting is over Jan sometime then there will be no more riding since it will be for hunting only I think

Hunting in that area has been done since Thanksgiving day.  It is no longer hunting season until about 9 months or so.

Last year FWC was at the levy and told us we could not ride til Jan 5 which was the end of the hunting season I dont hunt so I would not know the schedule but if you are sure Ok

Hunting was over Nov 18

[300 quadrunner]

i do remember wut gato is saying, it was shut down that late, but FWC told me that its fine to ride during the day or night, on or off the levi, as long as u got a flag and soemthing about a fire extinguisher... never heard that one

Nothing about a fire extinguisher was on the rule list...I'm not worrying about it.

Maybe it's for a track/buggy/airboat?

[300 quadrunner]

thats wut she told me, but i havent been asked by FWC when i have been stopped, so i am not worried bout it yet

Yea, I just read through all of the rules for everglades francis s. taylor and it said nothing about atv's and fire extinguishers...

[300 quadrunner]

i found it wierd to, but i went out there and had my flag, FWC just stopped by to say hi and make sure i wasnt intoxicated, and he said nothing bout a fire extinguisher, so i guess the office lady was mistaken
