I wish that everyone could have attended our General Meeting. Rick Brunner, an EMT Instructor talked about what we can do if we encounter an emergency while driving in the back country. He provided the list below that he recommends that we carry with us. If not all of it, at least this will give you good guidance on some items to pull together for an emergency bag. Rick informed us that all of this is available on Amazon. If there are some who are interested in a more intensive first aid classes, especially for CPR training, send me an email and I can helpRead More →

A long-time member of AAR, Larry Walker, passed away on October 11, 2023, after a long battle with strokes. He was 86 years old. Larry was not a founder of the Club however he was one of the early members of the organization. He loved to ride his quad. During his riding days he crossed the state riding. His favorite places to ride were in the Forest Lakes/Heber area where he would camp and ride. Those who knew him, will remember his great sense of humor. I personally will miss a dear friend, and great riding buddy. Rest in peace, my friend. Remembrance to: PatRead More →

I have gotten a lot of questions on how to use GAIA. I made my first attempt to do a basic “how to” video that shows how to download a track to your computer, how to import it into GAIA and then how to make sure it is on your ipad or phone when you do your next ride. If you think this helped you, let me know and I will do more of these. You can find this video on GAIA at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MgBLZof5mo&t=180s. I would be interested to know if this helps anyone. Keith Menasco [email protected]Read More →

During our last General Meeting Tom Murphy brought to our attention a very exciting new trail that is being developed that will be similar to the “Peace Trail” but, in the higher elevations of eastern Arizona. It is called the Arizona Alpine Trail (https://azalpinetrail.com/). The trail is in its beginning stages and will take a while. I am sure volunteers will be needed. I know, I for one, am very excited about this. Keith MenascoRead More →

As a Club, we have limited ways of creating revenue. One is through the purchase of Club Merchandise. We now have a new hat design. All prices for our hats, shirts, etc are at: https://azatvriders.club/forum/topic/az-atv-riders-club-merchandise/#postid-13. The new hats may be a little higher in cost than what is on our website.

If anyone that owns a Baofeng radio or is planning on purchasing a Baofeng radio and needs to have it programmed, I am willing to try programming it. I have the programming cable and program to do so. After programming the radio will have all the GMRS channels needed to ride the trails. Here is a link to Amazon for the Baofeng radio: https://www.amazon.com/BaoFeng-UV-82-Power-Radio-Portable/dp/B09495V4QW/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3VPUHOY5U6L3Y&keywords=baofeng+uv82&qid=1675104568&sprefix=baofeng+uv82%2Caps%2C139&sr=8-3 Bob Harper [email protected]Read More →
