I was driving down some roads by my house and the water covered my 36" tires witout a problem. I ended up pulling some guy and his Van out of a ditch. He must have had a good foot to foot and a hlf of water in the van.

 

yeah..it sucks. its been raining non-stop for the past three days. if any of you seen about the Manatee Lake/River Dam door thingy on the TV, i am close to that. with all the rain, there has to be some mud to play in around here somewhere...

 

Oh yes alot of mud to play in Come to North Port there is plenty to go around

 

where is north port at?

 

North Port is Just south Of Venice/Sarasota
There are all Kinds of places to play out there

 

how far is Venice from Sarasota? it takes me 40 or so minutes to get to the other side of Sarasota.

 

I work Off SR 64 and it takes me 30-45 minutes to get to Venice It would probably take another 15 minutes to get to North Port

 

so your 15 minutes south of Venice which is about 40 minutes south of Sarasota which is 40 minutes south of me? so about an hour and half from me? when do you wanna play in some mud??

 

whenever your ready. I am heading down there Saturday morning to check it out. Alot of roads are closed right now due to river rising. I am going tonight after work and checking it out.
Just let me know and i will see if i can head out there with you

If i leave SR 64 and head to North port I would said doing 80-85 I could get to North Port in about an hour but that is pushing it.

 

hmm..ok. i have to work this weekend. i get monday and thursday off. maybe next weekend i will have sunday off. do you have any tow straps? i got a buddy that might also want to join us if we go.

 

Oh yes I have a tow strap
Just let me know when you are ready to go

 

did you find anything good to play in?

 

Went down last night to check out the water height and it was high in some spots past my front bumper, ent off the road a few times and and to tear up the ditch to get back on so I am pretty dirty right now. So yes alot of stuff to play in.

 

your front bumper huh? anything more my level? i was looking at a map and found North Port. when do you usuallly go out?

 

The front bumper was on the road. If we go off road there are spots you could go i am sure. We had a friend out there with a stock blazer and he did fine. I usually try to get out ther eon Saturday morning But there are a few people talking about friday afternoon. I may just ride out saturday morning just to see how it is again.

 

cool...i just wanna get a little muddy......i wont be able to make it down this weekend..but maybe next. hopefully ill have next sunday off..
