4x4 in the Jacksonville area?

Hey guys,

I will be in Jacksonville right by the airport for work next week. On Friday I was planning on driving to some public land to camp for the night then on Saturday do some riding with the dirt bike and the Tacoma, mostly the dirt bike.

Through my research it seems Ocala is my best bet. I am really looking for fun mildly sandy trails not MX tracks and some open roads or places to do a little photo shoot with the truck. In general just do some exploring.

I have found this map:

I see FL riders need to have permits to ride but as a Georgia resident I will be exempt. The web is telling me I will still need value proof of ownership for the dirt bike to ride but I am thinking ill be okay if I just trailer it down, pay my fee, and go ride...right?

I don't want to go to far south as I have to drive back to Atlanta Sunday.
Any thoughts on places to ride and camp for a quick weekend trip?

Thanks!

 

You'll be fine out there, just stay out of the wetlands
