Me and mt friends do, but usually Oct to May only. Too hot during the summer. We also spend time at Croom during the winter.

Big Scrub is a great home base for the weekends. We are usually there about every other weekend or so and come in late friday afternoon and stay till sunday evening. You can usually find us parked up front along the 588 side. We are in a 30' Cruise Air Motorhome pulling a 16'trailer and have 2 identical Raptors. Always looking to meet new friends to ride and camp with.

We were just up there on this last 3 day holiday a few weeks ago with my brother and his girlfriend, it's a really cool place to ride at, especially Blue Sink. We also met some pretty cool people to ride out with one night.

Hello,
"RideRed" I think we are the ones that you rode with that night. There was also two other guys with us, one on a Grizzly and one on a suzuki 4wd. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

My group rides a lot in ocala. SOmetimes over by big scrub. Usually down 73 east of blue sink. Be careful starting sept 21st because thats when hunting season opens up there, it runs until mid january.

I was there Sunday, September 15, and rode about 30 miles. Have ridden plenty out there over the years. It was mentioned on this thread about Blue Sink, that's a good place to cool off. Another good place to take a swim is Well's Pond. If you use a GPS device, the coordinates are: 29 07.993 N & 81 49.900 W.
