7th Annual Night Ride September 18, 2010 Saturday - Scared of the dark? Did you ever wonder what it would be like riding your ATV at night? Spooky? Join us for our annual night ride – we usually arrive at the rally point a bit early to decorate the ATVs with glow-sticks. Yes glow sticks! The theme is to make an animal out of your ATV using glow sticks from the dollar store. Please do not bring a flash light. 8:00PM to 2:00AM Rally Point: Hwy 64 Park-n-Ride Area - We usually arrive around 7PM to decorate the ATVs – leave about 8PM down through the play area – around to White Potato Lake – then Thunder Lake area and back. Maps to all rally points are on the website in PDF (Adobe) format for you to download and print.

How many miles do you consider a good ATV ride?
Why are we asking this question? Riders have asked for longer rides as they felt they were just too short. And some riders have asked for shorter rides as they felt some where just too long. So let`s put out a survey and ask around. When planning an outdoor adventure on your ATV how many miles do you consider a good ride?

What is geocaching?
An outdoor game played on an ATV
Geocaching is a high tech treasure hunting game played in the woods, on an ATV with a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver. ATV riders promote their favorite club by publishing coordinates to interesting places to seek out. Riders may also hide "treasures" along the trail for other ATV riders to search for; there are several games to choose from.
Check out
MyATVenture.com™
The club has already posted its trail and some geographical "spots" of interest to seek out - as well as several other neighboring club trails. The website provides a lot of information about the game, how to use a GPS and some rules to help keep you on the right track. It’s all about fun and safe ATV riding.

Helpful Stuff
Buying a Used ATV
|
Not all of us can afford a brand new ATV with all the bells and whistles. As with cars or motorcycles or any large vehicle for recreation or pleasure, we sometimes have to start out with buying second hand. Of course there's nothing wrong with purchasing a used car, bike or ATV. If you are going to buy used, you have to know what to look for, especially with a vehicle such as an ATV where you know that there is a chance the previous owner might have given the ATV some serious abuse on the trails. Before you begin to cruise the classifieds you have a couple of decisions to make. Who is the ATV for? An ATV for an adult is made differently than one made for a child. Do you want the ATV for purely recreational purposes? Do you want to race or just enjoy some leisurely off-roading with your family? Do you want to use the ATV as a utility vehicle? [Read more...]

Survival in the Wilderness
Finding water
|
Finding water is a top priority in the wild. An adult can survive only a few days without water, but many weeks without food. Dehydration: About 3/4 of the human body is water. Your body loses 0.5-1 gallon (2-3 liters) of water each day through sweating and urination, more if you are hot, exerting a lot of energy or are at high altitudes. This water must be replaced. Therefore, drink often. [Read more...]

Wilderness Tails Encountered
Did the county worker see bigfoot?
On local media in southeastern Wisconsin ran a story about a possible sighting near famous local Hill. The story referred to a contracted worker whose job it is to pick up deer carcasses on the highway on a regular basis. Some versions of the news story said a deer carcass was stolen from his truck by an alleged bigfoot. The story ran in many newspapers across the country and quickly got the attention of various bigfoot researchers. Local TV also started reporting on the story. Local TV also reported on the story and used it as a good humor story for their broadcasts. [Read More]
