Considering the popularity of trail riding and the fact that NY has the 3rd largest ATV sales in the USA (source: 2002 & 2003
motorsports industry trade publications), historically there have been very few legal places in the state where the general public can ride ATVs and trail bikes. Finding such places is problematic, so NYSORVA focuses on the “big picture” of riding opportunity statewide and defers to other sources for local where-to-ride detail ("where can I ride" is the most popular inquiry we get). We hope our overall efforts will create the environment for the short list to grow.
We will continue to harp on the fact that your best way to find places to ride is to join a club and be active with it. See the Club List page linked in the "NY Clubs" section above.
