| Question #1 | I've never driven an All Terrain Vehicle, is it difficult? |
| Answer: | All of our ATV's are 4X4 automatic. If you can drive a car, you can drive an ATV. |
|
| Question #2 | Can I bring my own ATV and ride your trails? |
| Answer: | Yes. You can bring your own machine(s) and pay only the trail fees. We have a number of special rides using your own ATV with special rates for these events. Call for information. |
|
| Question #3 | Should I call in advance? |
| Answer: | We strongly recommend that you call ahead and book a time so that you are not disappointed. We customize our guided tours and you may have to wait if we are on the trails and do not know you're coming! |
|
| Question #4 | I am an experienced rider. Do you insist that I wear a helmet? |
| Answer: | Yes. Helmets and eye protection must be worn at all times. If you are truly an experienced rider, then this rule will make sense as it is the law. |
|
| Question #5 | How old must children be to ride your trails? |
| Answer: | Children must be over 6 years old to ride, and are the responsibility of the parent(s). |
|
| Question #6 | Do you "package" with any of the local hotels? |
| Answer: | Yes we do and we encourage you to book your holiday with one of the accommodations listed on our "links" page who package with us. |
|
| Question #7 | I have a high-performance machine. Is there an area I can race my ATV? |
| Answer: | No. If you've come to race, you have come to the wrong place. We provide a safe environment for our visitors to enjoy NATURE, not SPEED! We have more advanced trails for the experienced driver and for those with their own ATVs. |
|
| Question #8 | Are there any forms or contracts to sign? |
| Answer: | Yes. An Insurance Waiver must be signed prior to all tours. |
|
| Question #9 | Do I have to wear any special clothing? |
| Answer: | Yes. Shirts, long pants & shoes or boots must be worn at all times. Also we suggest you dress for the weather ~ when there is mud, wear mud pants & old foot wear; when driving in the winter, wear warm clothing, especially leather gloves & warm foot wear.
Approved helmuts must be worn and must fit properly. IA helmut cannot be put over a hat or other article encompassing the head area. |
|
| Question #10 | Do you allow smoking on your tour? |
| Answer: | Yes. However smoking is only permitted at rest areas. We want to keep everything just as we found it. |
|
| Question #11 | Do you ever have a good used ATV for sale? |
| Answer: | Yes. We will always have a newer ATV for sale. These ATVs will not have been used for trailing, but rather will be acquired through private sources and not older than 2001. Check our "Home Page" for details of current ATVs for sale. When, and if, we are selling trail ATVs, we will advertise this. |
|
| Question #12 | I'm not sure I want to drive a machine, can I ride on the back? |
| Answer: | Yes you can ride on the back of the ATV, but the maximum weight for the machine is 300 lbs. and when trail conditions are poor (in winter when the ruts are very hard) we must adhere to the weight maximum for the machine. |
|
| Question #13 | Do you package with any of the accommodations in the area? |
| Answer: | Yes we do and we thank these businesses for this opportunity. The following are the Hotels/Motels/Inns/B&B's who package with us. Check out our "Links" section for the web site information.
