Teal Ox Adventures

We ride with the Florida Trail Stompers through Citrus WMA on a wet Friday night. In honor of Independence Day, many of the vehicles decorated and showed their spirit. The area was pretty wet this time due to recent rains, but most of the holes were still passable. The big dip washout on Trail 14 was wet, but much more manageable than our previous video: https://youtu.be/rEmJ-2DUAWc

We joined Florida Trail Stompers (FTS) for an early morning breakfast at Cracker Barrel in Brooksville. After breakfast honoring our veterans, FTS Veteran Outreach Coordinator and Lady Stomper Trail Boss Jane Harper lead a ride into the forest of Croom WMA.

On Saturday, January 16, we joined the Lady Stompers (part of the Florida Trail Stompers) for a ride through the Citrus Wildlife Management Area in the Withlacoochee National Forest. Music: https://www.bensound.com

After installing larger tires on our 2020 Jeep Wrangler JLU, we were having intermittent false alarms from our ParkSense system. In addition, the tire was blocking connection of our trailer hitch. We installed the Red Rock Spare Tire Relocation Bracket to see if that would resolve the issue. This is a quick and easy install that resolved the ParkSense issue. The only issue we had was one of the nuts welded to the frame of the bracket broke loose, but we were able to hold it with a wrench to tighten it. It appears to be well made. https://www.extremeterrain.com/redrock4x4-jeep-wrangler-spare-tire-relocation-bracket-j130928-jl.html https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08358B2SR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0033YS6UQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

We traveled to Jeepin' with Sheriff Judd for the first time. Join us as we share some of the events we captured. If you have not been, we recommend you go, even if just to spectate as we did.

We traveled to Townsend, TN to participate in the Go Topless Day events at Cades Cove Jeep Outpost followed by a ride on the Foothills Parkway. The weather, venue and scenery were outstanding. Watch if you enjoy Jeeps and/or scenic drives. We hope you enjoy the video. Stay tuned for more videos from this trip. https://fb.me/e/1cix7ZEPT http://jeepthecove.com/ https://foothillsparkwaytn.com

We joined Florida Jeep Girl lead by @JenFalzarano on a nice ride through Citrus Wildlife Management Area. The big adventure was on Trail 14 where the large hole changes constantly. This time, it was definitely the most challenging we have seen it. Florida Jeep Girl along with the Florida Jeep Guy, Florida Jeep Dog & Tampa Renegade Brigade have been formed by volunteers to provide a safe and fun environment for our local Florida Jeep Community in which proceeds support local charities. www.floridajeepgirl.com https://www.facebook.com/groups/floridajeepgirl https://myfwc.com/recreation/cooperative/citrus/

We took a quick trip to Citrus Wildlife Management Area to enjoy some of the trails and the great spring weather. Citrus WMA is part of the Withlacoochee State Forest. It is important to adhere to the Tread Lightly Principals when riding anywhere, but especially in state and national forests. Failure to do so can result in a hefty fine. https://myfwc.com/recreation/cooperative/citrus/

While exploring the Great Smoky Mountains, we decided to try some off-road driving in terrain that is significantly different from what we are used to in Florida. We had a great time and hope you will enjoy this video with us. www.outdoorsinthesmokies.com
