has anyone try trial rideing at Emerson point in palmetto?how bout desoto heriage park?looks great for scale rigs.

im in myakka"thumbsup" this weekend with my rig if you want to go try some of those spots

their is a descent place here in lakeland its a old phosphate pit that has been turned into fishen holes and mountain bike trails. ive taken my truck there a few times but have yet to find rocks its just dirt trails with roots. a few places the trail is no more than say 2 feet wide then its straight down to pretty deep water. kinda gets your heart pumping do think that your pride and joy could go for a swim with one glitch or one goof from you.

throttlebody i know there's some good spot out there in myakka for scalers and some mud where they at?

i cant be the only one down here im i?S**T

these are the rocks at found at local park in bradenton enjoy

and there's a few more on ground level"thumbsup"

Is that at GT Bray?! :shock:

Edit: Nevermind, I see from the other thread and your PM that it is GT Bray. Those are awesome rocks. I'll get over there very soon!"thumbsup"

ya let you know next time i go out there im still lookin for a crawler

Pick up one of the many MRCs that are always for sale on here...

What about the banks of the creek at the Northwest side of the park, back behind the dog park? The banks are Limestone, some challenging grades. The creek bed is practically dried up because of the drought. There's some puddling in there since the last rain 2 days ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpJNVyEuwEU

lol i hit the puddles when i was there today

Added some locations to this map.

Both would be pretty cool. I don't have a trail rig yet, just fast RC's, but I'm always looking for cool places to drive them.

anybody in bradenton,sarasota and palmetto with crawlers or scalers?

Gt Bray.. thats right.. they have some nice rock sections out there.. i gotta go check it out when i come to visit my parents in Oct.

Re: bradenton area
 

I'm really disappointed the we don't have a group of scalers or scale crawlers in the Sarasota/Bradenton area. I've been busting my butt trying to come up with some unique spots to crawl at. I've been moving rocks and mortaring them in place, drilling holes for flags, making paths with shovels, building bridges, etc. I would do more if there was some interest in this area. I even supply trucks for my friends to use that don't own one! What's a guy gotta do?
