All jokes aside that is really a shame, I was born and raised in central WV, and even tho there were limited places that held sanctioned events closest was a 30 minute drive they always raced an atvs as well usually a C class heat and the A and B class got combined. They also had an XC track, fun to ride but only the start finish had bleachers. Think about west Virginia is there are explorer mine and logging roads, with trails connecting them I could ride almost all trail to nearly anywhere in the county. Of course my grand mother owned a reality company back in the day, and had 600 continuous acres, that she had sold the mineral rights to.
I could literally ride all day and not hit the same trail twice. It's crazy to think that you wouldn't be able to legally ridea in the rural areas. But i guess the day when you could ride other peoples property, as long as you were respectful are long gone. No one seems to know or care much about respect these days.
Why does CT have issue with atv's any ways. is it a hold over from the big bad dangerous three wheeler days.
Most states here in the south will let you ride atvs on the rural roads with laws similar to farm equipment,or a bicycle, unless it's under 90cc then you can get by following moped rules. Are you in or near a metro area or large city?
