Benny Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Any one read the ST Paul Pioneer Press today?It spells it out there, your county may be next!!!!If we don't speak up when it is our turn, the anti atv people will get thier way and we all will pay for thier narrow minded way of thinking.The second offence in Washington county is a Misdemeaner charge, that can mean you won't be able to get a job some where or you could loose the one you have if the employer requiers a clear record.Many young people could end up labled as crimianals for the rest of thier life!!!I have been telling people for a long time, we as ATV riders and owners are going to get worst treatment than the sled riders did back when they were in this position.OH for the sled riders, be fore warned the antis won't stop with the ATV,S.There is already a bill being pushed into the legeslature to ban sleds from the lakes.As they are causing so many accadents with the speed they can reach on a frozen lake.Look it up to see for your self, just search the state web site for new bills being consedered.We ALL need to organize as ONE group, not 50 or 75 little voices spread all over the state.Thanks, I will step off the soap box now.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Posted December 23, 2003 Author Share Posted December 23, 2003 Good Idea, I should post info on who to contact to join a club.As soon as I get back from the Range for Christmas I will look into and find names and numbers to contact.Dave has pointed to one of the most out spoken and hardist working clubs you will find any where.ATVAM is nationaly reconized as a leader in our fight to ride responsibly on our beloved ATV's.I would join their club along with any local club you can find.Then get the local club to affileate them selves with ATVAM to help suport the group as a common voice.Check back next week,if I can locate some contact info I will post it here.Thanks for your intrest,Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
