I am not sure how many people are putting after markey exhaust on ATVs. There are a few loud ones. Also ATVs probably are not late at night or early morning,except when hunting. That and quanity. Also I tbink it depends where you are, if they are accelarating, same with sleds.

I like it that towns in WI are opening up roads, but it also doesn't interest me a lot to ride on the road. But I think you should be able to get places. I am just not going to spend the day riding on the raods. Even up north I avoid areas where you have to go long stretches on the road, bad for tires.


What sucks about much of WI is much is farming. So you can ride sleds in the winter, but land is being used in summer. Unlike the areas I am in the UP where it is logging, and forest roads and public land

ATV after market mods have exploded. . My son inlaw's razor in a monster. Even his CanAm has some performance upgrades.
A lot of the ATV traffic around here is older people in groups just out for a ride.
I would guess if we did not farm the land, people could go with eating.
I had 20 acres that was just left alone. It was use by a few ATV and off road bikes. The Army corps of engineers and DNR tried to take it. After beating them I had to tile it and start planting to to protect my rights. Sad because I also allowed open hunting on it.
Screwed up world we live in.

I in.
Pull stick out of your ***. Just saying how areas are different.

None of use would do much without logging either.

Only one who whines more than farmers is teachers

Without John Deere, chemical engineers, oil rig works, power company, we would not have farmers
