Actually lots of people still driving their vehicles off road. Trucks and jeeps. No different then a quad or sxs.

As mentioned a few times select areas in SW AB are open. Stay south of Red Deer River.

The ban worked out good for mw as I got a chance to sleep-in dreaming about riding the bright blue skies, fishing the end-less stream that don't have fish, getting stuck on my little quad along the edges of a swamp full of mosquitoes,,, with no bug spray.

Part of the awesome dream lead my thoughts to pluging a tire with glue that dried up, and my gum-boots both hve holes in them, Ha.
Dark clouds roll in so I can find out that my rain coat still has tears in it form my last ride, being that the quad sat for so long, the gas turned into milk plugging up the needle & jet.

The 365/ 24 hour day clock probably killed the battery dead any-who.

Yuppers as I lay here dreaming about the next ride makes me smile !!! Knowing that nothing got fixed will add quality to the next ride as I still wonder today if I'll ever find that dam thermos I lost on the last quad trip 10 years ago.

Good times ahead with or with out.
