Massachusetts HB3592

NQRIDER · #1 (**permalink**) 06-08-2008, 09:22 PM

This bill, if you are not familiar, will end kids under 14 from riding ATV's. As the newly elected President of the Massachuesetts Trail Association I invite everyone to check out these links.

Any Mass riders should step up and help me battle DCR with all the existing Mass ATV clubs. United, we can make it better here.

Making it better here, gives other riders more riding too!

Here is my ramblings on this

If you live in MA, ride in MA, have kids, ride an ATV, or can spare a buck or two- maybe more- please donate.
Help the MA ORV community hire a lobbyist to fight for our riding rights. First task will be to change the language on
House Bill 3592. This bill, which has the strong possibility of becoming a law would make it illegal for 14 year olds and younger to ride ATV's in the state of MA-YES even on private property! Parents would get fined and could have their license taken away and could possibly serve time in JAIL!!!!! More HERE.

Not long ago ago there were about 32 state parks in MA offering ATV/ORV trails, now there are just 3- Don't have a date but look at this DOCUMENT.

Write to the Legislators.

You can read more about the bill and its progress Here

You can read about donating RIGHT HERE!

Thank you!!!!

Excellent posts guys. This really is an important issue and anyone who has a the time to read through please do. Donations are needed so we can reach our goal/need of $5000 for a lobbyist.
