the cops around here gave up one chaseing quads cause they no that they aint going to catch u and they really wont say nothing as long as u have ur helmet on and staying in the speed limit alil and stoping at the stop signs

 

Yep run from the cops.... Im sure I will buy your new shiny quad one day at a government auction. Thanks for the new cheap quad. I will ride responsibly with it not drive it on roads and enjoy it for many years to come.

 

i dont have to worry about cops where im at. I live out in the middle of nowhere here in texas. Where im at theres no cops and everyone lets me ride on their trails. Where im at theres hardly any dirt...its all SAND. I can go riding on trails and not tear them up cause after its real windy or rains the sand washes back over the sand. Plus running from the cops is a bad idea..gets them more pissed. Then when they actually CATCH you they want to beat your @$$ cause you ran from them. I mean i have 2 '96 Timberwolds, 1 Deere Gator 4x4 and a KFX700 and would not run from the cops even on those. Trails get taken away cause kids will go riding on ppls land and make trails and tear stuff up and make the land an eyesore. If you want to ride ppls trails ASK...otherwise go find legal trails or ride your friends trails.

 

hey KodiakOwner....i noticed u live in Alberta....where abouts do u ride at?

 

N.E. Alberta. Cold lake/ bonyville/ st.paul/sometimes grande cache whitecourt area.

Not really too much around edmonton to ride I suppose.

 

have u heard of a small lake called...Fork lake? becuase thats where the majority of my riding is, a pretty decent gravelpit in the lakeland county area, on every 2nd or 3rd weekend...and there is a pretty sweet sandpit about 10mins from my house since i live on the outskirts of edmonton.

 

o man another cop thred lol anywho i got pulled over, it was unexpected becuase me and my friends always ride down this back road to get to the trails. turns out he was intorested in getting a sport quad so i guess u had to turn the sirens on (meanwhile everone was staring at us) and we thought we were in trouble lol, o well i needed a good laugh. cops are weird you never know if the pigs or nice people. o well...

 

People that are out riding around like jackasses are the ones that get caught by the cops. a bout 2 years ago i was riding on the back of my exboyfriend's 400ex through a field and the bike in front of us spooked some horses (about 6 of them). they all took off in different directions and the entire family came down (Jim bob, billy joe... lol and a bunch of hicks etc...) they brought 5 cars and the cops. It was a bad experience for me. Of course, we deserved it for going past the horses so close and so loud like that. thats what makes people post their land. Since then I've had to cross major highways to get to places to ride... and i havent been caught yet... knock on wood.

 

yeah, in marquette county in the U.P. they made it a law that you CAN...yes.. CAN ride on the sides of the road. which is sweet as hell, they just passed it and there are already idiots flying down the roads without helmets on all the time. they are the ones that are gonna get the laws taken away, we dont need that. is there anywhere else where you can really legally ride and not get in trouble......i love the U.P.!!!!!!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

yeah in richmond the old cop would just give u a slap on the wrist if u were causing trouble, but now the new cops will get u for everything that they can,even if ur not doing anything wrong they will watch u till they find u doing somthing bad, they have nothing better to do

and i agree with raptorrider19
