Where do you ride ? please respond to this poll

It has been suggested that atv owners should ride only their land or we will kill the sport (not likely) and should not buy a quad unless we have enough of our own land to ride without bothering others (what logic). I on the other hand say ride anywhere you can as long as no one cares and don't mind if you're there doing it. I believe that the more of us own quads the more public places will open to accomodate us and the harder it will be to stamp out the sport when there are so many that participate in it. Strength in numbers.

Keep in mind that this poll does not advocate tresspassing or riding where you are not wanted. But I say if no one cares and you're not destroying someone else's stuff and it's not frowned upon by law enforcement then it's not a problem.

Ride safe, Be happy, and if you're miserable and pathetic keep it to yourself !

Interesting poll. I, for one, only live on a 1/3 acre lot so riding around my house wouldn't be much fun BUT I do have a lot of woods behind my house and there is already a small track back there.

Personally, I will ride anywhere I can. I plan to go to Sorrento, know of a nice place there. ONF, croom, dade, sand and the list goes on.

keep in mind when voting each option is ONLY what is listed there. If you sometimes ride other land you can't vote for my land ONF or what ever you would be pushed into another category since you don't ride ONLY those two.
I don't think there will be many that can claim only their land.

MotoMike - that's how most people are. We ride where we can as long as it's not bothering someone or made obvious that we're not wanted there. If no one cares then ride it, but don't trash it. I think part of the fun in riding is going to new places and experiencing new terrain, jumps, and obstacles.

Cain I think I know where you got the idea of posting this poll. As I see it right now the poll shows that 70% ride where they can legal or not. So it's safe to say the majority will ride where they please. Can you tell where I ride. lol. Don't worry about it, I think someone in that other thread is just flowing heavy this month.

Dont forget the other anorignal pole in the where to ride section.

Sport66 - I thought you might get a kick out of it. He has even extended an offer to ride his property. I think we should make it a group ride and ALL show up ! I have no idea of how much land is there, but there won't be much left after 100 of us get done riding

. I try to respect the opinions of others, but resent having one forced upon me regardless of the situation.
In light of my recent experiences with some people I believe it's time to modify an old saying
From - It is better to remain quiet and let others think you a fool than to open your mouth and prove them right

To - It is better to remain quiet and let others think you a quiet A-hole than to open your big mouth and prove them right by giving them a headache and taking over their post !
