Saddling up for a backcountry adventure in unfamiliar territory can be a bit nerve-wracking, especially if you’re planning to be your own guide. Sure, you may be fine with directions and thoroughly prepared, but being your own guide to the unknown can be a recipe for frustration, back-tracking and wasting time that could/should have been spent [...]

While I realize it’s only July, October is a big month here at ATV Magazine, as it’s the month we hold our annual ATV Trials testing event.

Good day, and happy Forth of July! Hopefully you’ve got plans you’re looking forward to over this holiday weekend. Maybe you’re feeling like I do, excited to be lazy, not traveling on the busy highways and staying around home. It’s been a busy few weeks, with a few more hectic ones coming up – so sitting [...]

From time to time we all run into or meet new people that are eager to get into the sport, and because most of us are thrilled to share the joys of the sport we all know and love, we are more than happy to introduce and teach the “new blood” all there is to [...]

While cruising the ATV Magazine/ATV Sport forums, I found a post from Elite Member “Grey Grizz” of Massachusetts, that linked to Howe and Howe Technologies from his home state. He shared a link to the H&H’s new Mini Rip, which looks like a snowmobile with tank tracks. In a testing video Geoff Howe called the [...]

The reason for this post is to remind those companies that have not created a fan page/business account on a social [...]

Last week, I had a life changing experience, and so did my bride. We were in California on a part-vacation, part-work trip. It started in and ended in San Francisco, but in between we put more than 1,200 miles on the rental car working our way down, then up the California coast. Alcatraz, the Monterey Acquarium, [...]

Winter really pulled a disappearing act on us this year in the Upper Midwest. One day I was sitting atop my yard’s towering snow banks sipping Irish coffee scowling at my neighbors’ less-than-symmetrical piles of snow, while the next week I was spreading aloe on my sunburned face and working on those stubborn tan lines on [...]

I got the byline on that shootout, but took the feedback from all the magazine’s test riders to compile the story. We tested five utility quads with power steering and came away [...]
