Florida Trails and Tracks

The problem for many dual sport and adventure enthusiasts is that they simply do not have either the time or the money to participate in the rally circuits or riding circles. Most rallies are three days; perhaps those with significant work loads can swing one or two a year. Also, rallies are expensive. Devil's Creek alone was $180. When it comes to the riding circles, again, our busier dual sport brothers and sisters just can't always make the ride time/date.

We think that a very simple resource that provides comprehensive information (including dot.gpx tracks) of publicly accessible trail networks would set these enthusiasts up to hit the trails on their own schedule and without organizational cost.

Introducing Florida Trails and Tracks!


Florida Trails and Tracks Network is a "developing" association of regional, interconnected blogs designed to serve as a resource to dual sport and adventure enthusiasts by providing the information they need to access public trails on their own schedule.

The first Blog in this developing network is Florida Trails and Tracks-West Central. As other regional blogs come online, they will be connected using a process called link building. Ultimately, the goal would be a network with a footprint that covers the entire state.

Be advised that the Network builds it's site information contemporaneously under the direction of it's hosts. The Network does not use any existing tracks from organized events. Further, the network does not use any prior developed tracks of the hosts or others. Site information in the Network is developed by Network hosts and maintained as current.

Anyone interested in hosting a regional blog should review the Network Guidelines that are linked in the right column of the West Central Blog.

UPDATE:

Florida Trails and Tracks is temporarily locked down as we review guidelines.
