Yes, Hubby and I took the mountain bikes down to the Lake Panasoffkee wildlife management area today. Had never been there before and we weren't real sure how the trails were. (Nice area with equestrian and primitive camping and a campground host.) There were no maps in the box but we looked at the one that was posted and decided to try the Jones Creek Trail. Went down about 3 miles of shellrock road and turned onto a Loop Trail. We went another couple of miles but finally had to stop as the shellrock turned into some really sandy areas that were impossible to ride on. We did see a big black hog and evidence of more as that part of the trail was pretty rutted. We decided to head back as we just weren't real thrilled riding (or trying to ride) in the sand. When we returned, the campground host was putting maps in the slots and we went and spoke to her. She told us that the original trail we were on would have been the best and that it eventually would have taken us over a creek and continued on for another 5 miles or so. We checked out the primitive camping area and have decided to go back one weekend and camp and try the trails again. Overall, nice day and I finally got to put a few miles on my mb. Hadn't been able to ride it much since hubby's rotator cuff surgery.
