With COVID-19 restrictions looking like they’ll be eased to allow for more travel before long, it’s time to think about events you missed or implement plans you’ve made during the past year.
Previous rider surveys have told us how far you’ll go for a local day ride but do you ever vacation with your ATV? ATVBC and clubs host events around the province that many local riders attend and neighbouring provinces and states have poker rides, jamborees and campouts that attract riders from across North America.
British Columbia
There are so many amazing places to ride across BC, a great way of exploring many of these is through the annual ATVBC Jamboree. With all the COVID turmoil of 2020 there aren’t any solid plans for a 2021 Jamboree but keep an eye on the ATVBC website for news.
North Island 1000
Poised to become a world famous ATV tourist attraction, communities across northern Vancouver Island have created a 1000km loop through 11 communities. If you’re interested in doing this trip contact the North Island 1000 folks and they’ll let you know what you need to have in place to do the 1000.
Other BC Destinations
It’s impossible to mention all the amazing BC riding areas, some areas that I’ve had the opportunity to enjoy: Princeton, Merritt, Kamloops, Sicamous, Mission, Chilliwack, Harrison Lake, Greenwood, Creston, 100 Mile, Prince George, Barriere & Nakusp.
Western USA
The western US States have an amazing diversity of riding opportunities from rainforests in State Forests in Western Washington to the dry Okanogan conditions in Eastern Washington, dune riding in Washington, Oregon, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona and California and extensive trail networks of ATV trails like the Paiute Trail in Utah and the one of a kind slickrock in Moab Utah.
