Between motorsports activists who want to enjoy riding their machines outside and other nature lovers who argue that off-road motor vehicles harm the environment and destroy the surroundings, there has always been a great debate for anyone who wants to enjoy the outdoors in a different way. . It can be argued that motorcycle and ATV riders have the same right to use public lands as anyone else, but most other outdoor activities do not interfere with riding in the way that riding can interfere with hiking, hunting, fishing, bird watching, or even the balance of nature and maintaining consistent floodplains. area. While there can always be conflict, understanding what other outdoor enthusiasts are doing and how your riding affects them will help keep ATV riding in the current areas and perhaps help it expand into even more areas.
The number one reason for banning ATVs in certain areas is the harmful impact it can have on the environment. Although ATVs smoke, are noisy, and help redistribute mud on the property, these factors have little impact on the environment. However, quad biking, if done incorrectly or carelessly, can damage waterways and have very noticeable impacts on the local environment. The biggest and most likely risk is damage to vegetation on the banks of watercourses and adjacent areas. Because these plants hold the riverbank together, if the plants are killed by driving over them, the soil in the area can easily be washed away, changing the flow of the river and often causing flooding. This type of flooding causes damage to the lowlands, which are usually very fertile and home to deer, turkey, wild mushrooms, an abundance of wild birds, and many other things that other nature lovers seek out. In addition, increased erosion along rivers and streams causes the water to fill with fine sediments, making it difficult for creatures such as tadpoles and crawdads to grow and develop, damaging the ecosystem as well as fish populations and fishing opportunities. Most state laws allow you to cross a river or stream on an ATV, but riding on waterways causes the most damage because so much sediment is stirred up in the water.
In addition to not damaging waterways and floodplains, there are a few other things you can do to ensure your ride doesn’t interfere with other activities taking place along the trail. For the most part, you should be fine as long as you keep your riding on the trail. Just as you get off the trail, you run into people who don’t appreciate motorsports as much as you do, and you can ruin their day in some cases. If you are driving in areas that allow hunting, you should take a minute or two to find out what animals are in season so you know what else is going on in the woods. Many hunters complain about ATV riders driving past their hunting grounds to see if they are having any luck. Although most hunters don’t mind gossiping about it, keep in mind that many hunters look forward to bagging a big deer or turkey for months, and an ATV off the trail is often enough to disrupt the animal’s normal patterns and prevent hunters from seeing anything. . It would be the same as if you were looking forward to a drive in the area, only to turn your back for a second and a hunter would ruin your trip by slashing your tires. Your day, as well as weeks or months of planning and anticipation, would be destroyed in a few short seconds. The same can be true for bird watchers, hikers, and people who fish in the streams and ponds where you drive. Although you may not realize it, the quad is a conspicuous presence in the woods, and not one that is appreciated by all creatures, including humans.
While there may be some conflict between motorsports enthusiasts and other outdoor enthusiasts, a little respect can go a long way. Also, keep in mind that many people who hunt, fish, hike, etc. also ride or have ridden ATVs and vice versa. Many hunters will use ATV trails to quickly cover ground and get into areas that are usually undisturbed and catch their prey unsuspecting. Most hunters realize that deer and turkeys become accustomed to the sight and sound of ATVs on the trails. However, when you leave the trail with your ATV, you disturb wildlife and possibly floodplains, giving other nature lovers and lawmakers a strong reason to restrict ATV riding to designated areas.
