No idea what its like down by fort myers, but I live north of Tampa its mostly sandy trails. Theres Croom Managment Area off I75 which is about 30 mins north of Tampa which is ok. Its got sand pits, trails, mudpits and limerock pits which are fun. I ride mostly in places that arent exactly "legal" that are a mixture of all that but are alot less crowded or empty except for me and my buddies. I also have a friend that rides freestyle motocross and hes got a decent track and a small fortune in ramps, so Im pretty lucky with that I guess.

Oh, and as for the bike. If the Z is fine for you know, theres no reason to change. Just make sure you have tires for soft dirt and sand. As for tracks theres a few around Tampa/Orlando not sure about ft myers.

As far as riding goes, I hate Florida. I am from the west, and out there we have mountains and planes, endless trails and areas. And if you are driving around and see somewhere that looks cool, you just pull off the side of the road and take off. It's awesome.

Not like florida where everything is designated. And if you are not in one of those areas then you are illegal. It sucks!!!
