Taking a ride through Citrus.

4/22/2018

A few weeks ago we took a ride through Citrus WMA. Like most people while searching YouTube for places to ride, Citrus came up. It did not disappoint. The trails were pretty easy but offered some places to stretch your camber. I did manage to bend my side bar on the passenger side back about an inch and a half. The trail dropped off the side of a tree root and I took a "slight" hit. Remember I'm just running 33s with no lift. No new parts till you break something... The place is made up of mostly North and South tails intersecting with East to west. There are campgrounds and even caves to explore. One of the cool things are the trails that cut into a hill so that there is a wall on each side. We had around 30 jeeps show up that day, even a Cherokee Trailhawk. The Cherokee guy. The dust was on the high side and Randy likes the top down, after all it is a Jeep. The trees were in bloom and new buds were all around. It looks like at one time was that there must have been a bit more freedom at some time, because some of the trail areas are now closed off with barb wire and metal poles to keep you on the trail. We only stayed for the day ride and would have loved to camp. But having two big dogs, puts some limits on where you go and how long you can stay. Our trail leader was Rich Hardaway and he took us for a cool ride with some diversity. Sand, Hills, Trees, and Mud... The mud smelled like sewer, it had not rained recently so the mud that was there had been sitting for a while. Most went around the mud holes. I drove through one and immediately regretted it. Talk about who farted? If your club is heading out that way, go, you will love it.
This week end we had to work on Saturday and missed out on all the Jeepin, with Judd Rides again stuff. It looks like they had a excellent time.

Future projects:
A lift is in the works, so expect that soon.
Cutting my fenders.
And if all goes well We might head out on the 28th to take some video and catch some snakes, and Randy wants flower pics.
Till next time Keep on Jeepin.
