I am thinking about getting a ranger but i only have 4 acres. I want another place to take it.
Where do you guys go? Also, How do you transport? trailer? pickup?

I am near the NE end of PA and where NY, NJ & Pa all meet.

Places to ride are pretty slim around here but if you go to the ORV park section you will find a couple we recently added that are in PA.

You are in a much better locale to either head west or go south and get to the Hatfield McCoy trails in WV.

Where I am you have to be a member of a hunting club or ORV club to find places to legally ride.

My club has almost 4,000 acres to keep me happy but with the club rules and insurance we have to buy I can't invite non members to come for a ride.

Most of the time when I go I have the entire property to myself and can travel over 30 miles and never hit the same trail twice.

My back yard borders 10,000 acres of state forest preserve land and I can't go off my own property. If I get caught on state land it will cost me $500 in fines plus what it costs to get my RZR out of the impound and the towing charge. WELCOME TO NY where the motto is "Shut up, pay the taxes and get nothing in return".

Rangers and RZRs almost always require a trailer to haul them. This one is 5X9 and just about the minimum for the RZR.

I had to wait for another member to die or be tossed out before I could get in! They have a set number of members and that is it.

We pay annual club dues plus we have to carry set insurance rates on our ATVs and follow all the rules. I wish we could have a few more members or even split it into hunting members and some non hunting ones who just want to ride. They don't want to hear it though.

Hey Grazor, just a few question if you don't mind. angel
1.  When are you going to die? Evil

2.  Does your hunting club get to split up your gear when you die? Evil

3.  Does your hunting club give a forum discount? Evil

4.  Who do I call to make reservations? Evil

5.  You are looking a little peaked, are you sure you are feeling well?  Evil

You be sure to go riding with 2005 DMAX it is fun to get wet and cold Evil
You have a good day now, Hear Evil
This forum is just too much fun!

Thanks for the info Gary, and don't forget to put me in your will.  Not that it will help because you will probably outlive me anyway..
