By the way, I must clarify something. I am not begrudging or belittling those people who enjoy "riding-for-pleasure," hey, more power to you. I've been invited and gone along with friends on snowmobiles, ATVs, motorcycles - and when I got back I was disappointed that I had spent the day doing so. I would rather have taken the day fishing with them, or sitting in the backyard playing cornhole or ladder ball.

I remember the one "pleasure ride" on snowmobiles. We got to the first stop almost 2 hours later and my buddy comes back to me, "Wasn't that great?" We were supposed to be "seeing the sights" enroute. At an average of 50 MPH I had all I could do to keep an eye on him and the trail in front of me, I really didn't see much of anything. It was cool going fast, but for 2 hours? And, you don't talk with one another while on the machines, so what's the point of going with someone?

Anyway, it is great that some people enjoy that. To each his own. I was just stating that as an ATV owner, some of us use them for other things than just going out for a ride.

By the way, if someone comes to my place up north and wants to take the ATV out for a pleasure ride, I will happily give them the keys to go for it, I know there are some great trails around my place - just at the end of my driveway they can get on one.
