Hello everyone! Tomorrow (May 20) is the Club’s last meeting before we take a break for the summer heat. We are just coming back from our camp and ride last week at Payson. We had some good rides. Come join us for fellowship. We gather at 5:00 pm for a bite to eat at Brothers Restaurant, https://azatvriders.club/events/general-club-meeting-az-atv-riders-may-20-2026-500-pm-700-pm/ and this is followed by a short general meeting at 6:00 pm. Our next get together at Brothers Restuarant will not be until September. Hope to see everyone there! Keith MenascoRead More →

A Tread Lightly representative came and talked to our Club during a General Meeting. The Board decided to join Tread Lightly, https://treadlightly.org/, as a Club Member. I have added Tread Lightly to our website as one of our partners, https://azatvriders.club/aar-partners/. They have many educational online courses available, https://treadlightly.org/online-training/ride-mighty-tread-lightly/. Everytime someone completes a free online course, Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) (Can-Am) will donate $35 to Tread Lightly. Another opportunity is a discount from BFGoodrich and Firestone tires. Email me if you wish to check into the tire discounts. Keith MenascoRead More →

Hello everyone! For those not able to attend our last Camp and Ride on Cherry Creek Road with rides into the Sierra Ancha Mountains, you missed some good rides. I put together three videos. You can see these plus many older ones on my YouTube Channel, https://www.youtube.com/@arizona3060. Take care! Keith MenascoRead More →

I encourage everyone to use GPS when they are riding. I use an Ipad but all you really need is your phone. I use my phone as a backup to my ipad. It helps to be able to mount your phone but, you don’t have to. I know of two kinds of GPS, GAIA gps, http://gaiagps.com and OnX Offroad ,https://www.onxmaps.com/offroad/app . I started with GAIA and will continue to use it, but OnX has a lot of good qualities and many of our members use it. I also subscribe to OnX. The introductory free version is not very helpful so you will need to subscribeRead More →

When the Board discussed conflicts between members we wondered why there was not a Code of Conduct that every member would consent to when they joined the Club or when they renewed their membership. We drafted a Code of Conduct and we are sending it out to all of our members to review and let us know if changes need to be made. Below is a draft Code of Conduct for your review: Keith Menasco – President ATV & CAMPING CODE OF CONDUCT Purpose Our club promotes safe, responsible, and respectful ATV/UTV riding and camping. All members and guests represent the club and the off-roadRead More →

Bill Haney has not been able to go with us on rides because he is dealing with throat cancer and is currently going through radiation and chemotherapy. He is doing the best he can. He is looking forward to getting over this and getting back out on rides again. In the meantime, he is keeping busy and is working on his machine and wanted to share some photos of a recent steering wheel modification, that he has completed for his Teryx KRX1000. The wheel on the left is stock KRX1000 and the wheel on the right is from a 2024 Kawasaki Ridge. A real niceRead More →
