Just wondering who's got a tractor, what make, model, and what you use it for mostly.
I have a Kubota BX1850, use it for mowing, fencing, clearing brush, and most recently putting in an approach and road on my land. Its small but man does it do some work! half the time I wish it was bigger and...
Absolutely, the official I have been speaking with made a point to note that it is not our right to ride in these areas it is a privilege allowed to us by the alberta government and is subject to the responsible use of our backcountry areas. My response to riding off the trails would be to use...
That sounds like it would be everyone's problem, but by allowing snowbikes to access the trails that the snowmobiles use do you think that it would make any difference? The majority of the vehicles operating in these areas will always be conventional snowmobiles, and the majority of the users...
Here you go guys, this is the exact interpretation from Alberta parks and environment
In all legislation there is the “intent” of the legislation. As in the case of “snow vehicles” there are different definitions in different acts. Under the traffic Safety Act a “snow vehicle” is included in...
Retiredpop, if you inspect your map closely you will find that it was printed in 2007. If you refer to the newest Kaninaskis country PLUZ brochure you will find that it refers to these area's as being "snow vehicle" accessible which would fall under the same definition as i have provided before...
Anything that has tracks or wheels all around would be considered an all terrain vehicle as it has the ability to drive on surfaces other than ice or snow. If it has a ski it can be surmised that it is designed only for travel on ice or snow as a ski does not work on anything else (well at...
I agree that the original form of a dirtbike does not meet this description, but if a track and ski is installed then the design is no longer a dirtbike it is a snowbike. If the alberta government had called these areas "snowmobile use" or had created a legal definition of a snow vehicle that...
I have been inquiring with the alberta government for a few weeks trying to determine what vehicles are allowed to operate in alberta snow vehicle areas and have finally gotten a good answer. The definition they are using for a snow vehicle is "a motorized vehicle designed chiefly for use on...
My interest is in possibly getting back into the bc side through cataract, the trails can be fun as well if there is fresh snow on them and also the bikes can ride on the edges where the sleds usually stay away from. I would just like somewhere to ride that has snow and is decently close to...
I have insurance through Intact, dirtbike is insured and the kit was added as an accessory. Not 100% sure what the policy is yet as I just got it done, but is only $250/yr for $9000 value of the bike and kit.
I believe we are no longer allowed to ride at castle, it has been re zoned as a protected area. Can someone confirm this? I have ridden there a couple times in the past
