Ocala meet Nov 26th-28th anyone?

Any update as to when and where to meet up ?

 

I just got hooked up with a map from colinb17, got to do some things around here real quick then I'll post up!

 

UPDATE

here's a map if you want to print it, zooming in and doing multiple sheets is a little tricky

As for meeting up, lets go with the intersection of 40 and 11. Looking at it on google maps theres a place on the south side we could gather. Theres an information stand or something there (thanks colinb17).
crazyman, every figure out what day you'll be coming up?
nd4spd86, what time will you be getting in on sunday?

hofs05 and I will be around all weekend pretty much so just just get me your times and days and that should be it. I'll pm you guys my number.

Are we forgetting anything?

 

Looking forward to this !
Are there going to be more folks out there on Saturday rather than Sunday ?
I'll be there either way.
Just need a time.

 

There is a vehicle use map available. More detailed, but it's 48 pages.

 

I would go but i have to do the family thing lol but i am new to having a truck i have a 2010 trd sports 2wd so i dont know what it can really handle. I am in miami homestead so i dont really need the 4wd

 

I keep mine in 2wd with the lsd turned on alot, its pretty capable.

 

Looks like we'll be meeting at 10am Saturday at said location. Bring your A game

 

It's on !

 

hmm... maybe I can shuffle around thanksgiving dinner with the family on Saturday till a bit later I'd really like to come up when the biggest group is gonna get together, and if I can't do that pretty much any time Sunday would work... and mgrande I'll pm you my number... does anyone have FRS radios? I have one I can bring along if anyone else has them.

 

just an fyi, the handheld radios, or CBs are great. if you want to use cell phones out there, verizon works....but that's it.
when i was out there last, my and alex's phones (verizon) had full signal, but my other two friends (at&t and some pay-as-you-go provider) had nothing. when we left the forest, they all of the sudden got 10 texts and a bunch of missed calls. so pretty much, don't count on reliable cell coverage unless everyone has verizon

 

If I can get a family member to join me I'd be game for Saturday. I just don't want to feel like I'm leaving the family behind over the holiday.

 

My sis said she's not really interested because she has to drive back to school on Sunday and that's a lot of time in the car. I appreciate the invitation but will not be able to join. I look forward to next time. Have fun and be safe guys.

 

This meet was a pretty good time... I can't wait for the citrus meet!!!

 

Had a good time today. Looking forward to Citrus in January !
