Preparing for a Ride
A safe and enjoyable ride begins with good planning and
preparation. Always ride with at least one other person in case you
have trouble, and let someone know where you’re going and when
you expect to return.
Before riding in an unfamiliar area, find out in advance if you need
special permits, get maps so you can study the terrain, and talk to
other riders who know the area.
Along with your ATV and riding gear, you should take along some
tools and supplies in case you have a problem. For some of the
difficulties you might encounter, see
Taking Care of the Unexpected
,
which begins on page 215.
We recommend that you always take water, food, a first aid kit, and
your owner’s manual. Other items you should consider loading on
your truck or trailer include:
• a tool kit
• tyre repair supplies and tools, and tyres
• extra parts, control levers, cables, and spark plugs
• wire, duct tape, and rope
• extra petrol
For safety, all refuelling should be done at a gas station on the way
to the riding area or at your base camp.
