 Posted: Tue Nov 02, 2010 4:28 am Post subject: Hi From BC Canada |
  |
|
Heard about this place from Monkey Man and thought I'd see how the other side of the world plays. I live in a Suburb of Vancouver and ride through out the province but mainly in the south west. I don't ride anywhere near as much as I'd like too though. I've been in the sport for about 8 years now and am hoping to get out a lot more this winter. I'm a member of Quads.ca BC's source for ATV'n, which is where I learned about this place, so if you want to check out what we do in BC checkout the site. My current ride is 2009 Suzuki 750 King Quad and my tow rig is a Ford F350 CC diesel. Looking forward to hanging out here when I can. Heres a couple of pics.

Thanks for the welcome gents. So what do you guys see as the biggest challenge for ATV'n in Australia right now? In BC we are about to under go registration and licensing. The hope is this will allow us some access to hi-way crossings which may also allow us to go into the smaller towns to fuel up, purchase lunch, etc. legally. Some towns "allow" us and the police turn a blind eye, if you behave. We also have the usual yahoo factor that screw it up and causes area to get shut down to us. Always fighting access these days where it wasn't as much an issue years ago.  |

| LOL Nah not in Victoria. There's a Victoria up here too on Vancouver Island, a short ferry ride from where I live. Access there is even worse than on the mainland. |
