 I set out for a ride today. The kids went off to play with friends, my wife had other interests for the day, and it had been a while since I gave my Venox a good run. Actually, after having read all about Serp's adventures, I was inspired to Ride more, gradually going on longer and longer trips. Of course this little adventure can't hold a candle to the mileage that Greg has done,, buuuut...:HAPPYRIDER: I rode a little over a hundred miles today, nothing out of the ordinary. When I need something more than my local 35 minute ride, I do the "Lake Linsay Run". I shoot through Brooksville on CR41 to Lake Linsay Rd. (476) and it takes me through some refreshing country scenery, open spaces, winding road.... all the way up through Nobleton to Bushnell in Sumpter County. On the way I detoured off to Istachatta Rd. for a few extra twistys. I stopped for fuel and headed back to 476 to make my way home. Leaving Istachatta On 476, I remembered passing a sign on the way up for "Hog Island Recreational Park". I heard nice things about it but never been there, and I thought it might be a nice place to take a break and be "closer to nature" along the Withlacoochee River. So off I turned. I brought my wife's camera, which had just about dead batteries   but I did manage to squeeze three pics out of them before I got to the river (this really pisses me off because had I been able to take more, I could have nicely documented this story). So I took a pic. of the sign, and of my bike sitting beside some nice country scenery, then I started down what seemed to be about 3 or 4 miles of limerock road, upon which I hit every pothole. Both the venox and my kidneys took a little beating before I got to the Rec. area at the river, where I took a pic. of the sign pointing to the Rec. area (of course I have no pics of the Rec area itself), and then a pic. of the river in each direction. It was kinda nice there, some picnic tables, a boat ramp, some old rednecks fishing, and it was extremely quiet. I sat peacefully enjoying the scenery, and a couple goes by in a canoe. In the distance I hear an aircraft engine comming up the river and right away I know it's an airboat, so I get the camera ready for a picture, because I know that my buddy, Cleve, from work is airboat crazy and if anyone would, he'd appreciate that I took a picture of one. Well The camera dies and I can't get a picture of the approaching craft What a waste, I thought. Here comes the best part... The airboat slows down, and I put the camera down so I wouldn't look suspiscious or like a tourist. Now the driver is waving at me!   HOLY CRAP it's Cleve! saying "Dang! Whatcha doin' in this neck 'o th' woods?" Well he ran the boat up on the grass and we belly laughed about the coincidence as I explained that I was trying to take a picture "of him" "for him"... and yep you guessed it.  I grabbed my gear, jumped on and went for a ride! (but not before I took two shots of Cleve and his airboat on the batteries I borrowed out of his GPS...ha-ha)(those two shots exhasted those batteries too so that was it for photos )So there we were flying up and down Withlacoochee River Yee-hawing like Burt Reynolds in "Gator". That was my very first airboat ride and I loved it! What fun! With a lack of photos, I wish there were some way to more clearly share the experience. Cleve had invited me and the family to go airboating quite some time ago, but it just never materialized untill today... by accident! :) After returning to Hog island Rec area (Cleve had ramped his boat in from the other side of the river at "Silver Lake"), I thanked him and took my Venox home for a washing since it was covered in limerock dust and lovebugs. It was a good day, and I hope it was a good read. :) The Slide  Spoiler: click to toggle [redit][/redit]

Yup! I looked at your code...strange,exactly the same but mine didn't work. That drove me nuts! Thanks for reposting it. And yeah Dave, I'm ready! It's gettin closer... A word of advice though, invest in plenty of batteries, or if yours is rechargeable, see about a second spare battery.
