We hear a lot of concerns from members of our communities about off-road vehicle safety. We share these concerns.

We encourage all riders to always wear an approved helmet, drive sober and drug-free, avoid speeding, and ride within their skill level, especially on rough or unfamiliar terrain.

For added safety, Ready to RideON is a two-hour interactive online program designed for 12 to 15-year-olds in Ontario, or for new riders. It provides a solid foundation in all aspects of ATV operation, from understanding the parts and functions of a machine to riding responsibly on Ontario’s trails. This course ensures that youth have the confidence and practical knowledge to start their ATV adventure.

Stay safe!

This time of year, along the shoulder of the road, you'll see snapping turtles nesting. This one picked a spot where a bicycle lane put some space between her and vehicular traffic.

I used my zoom lens and quickly took the photos so that I wouldn't disturb the animal and nest.
