Raiyn is up in Tampa area as well. I've ridden with him.

Also H.Star is down in S.FL, we got together for a couple of rides.

I haven't ridden Croom in ages. Last time I was there, it was soooo sandy, I had to pedal DOWN the hills.

Websites to check out for info on riding in FL:

www.ridgeriders.net
www.swampclub.org
www.omba.org (or .net)
www.goneriding.com (for racing info)

Not this weekend, but next Sunday (June 6), I'll be at Alafia from about 10:00 a.m. to ????

I rode the Swamp Club's Croom 50 in February and enjoyed the trails. I think it was the best of the three 50 mile events (San Felasco, Ididaride, & Croom). It had just rained so the trails were packed down pretty good. The hunters were a little disturbing though. At one point we had shot gun pellets rain down on us. There seem to be no shortage of Budweiser and pickups with guns & dogs in the back!

Alright. Also on Friday night there's a nightride at San Felasco.. starts at 7:30. I won't be in attendance, but I figured I'd spread the word for those who'd enjoy it. I'll be in Washington DC.. and without my bike
