What and Where We Ride: ATV Group Rides / UTV Group Rides

What We Ride

Members of TSATV ride a variety of different machines which predominately include the traditional ATV. However, we are aware of the fast growing side-by-side (SxS / UTV) market and welcome riders who own these machines. We also welcome members who ride with two wheels instead of four whether they ride trail, trial, dirt, adventure, or motocross motorcycles.

Side-by-Sides Welcome

Our goal is to provide a safe and educational environment with a family atmosphere for off-road enthusiasts. With the recent and rapidly growing popularity of side-by-sides, we welcome riders who prefer these machines. In some cases, side-by-sides provide a more family-friendly way to enjoy the beautiful trails Montana has to offer.

We welcome all trail legal machines

It doesn’t matter what kind of ATV, UTV or Motorcycle that a person rides as long as they are legal for the trail we ride on. Some USFS trails are limited on the width of the machine you can use to 50 inches.

Where We Ride

TSATV rides in a wide variety of areas and events sure to entertain a variety of rider levels and interests which include:

• National Forests of the Custer, Lewis and Clark,Gallatin, and Helena
• Montana’s public lands including BLM
• Annually MTVRA State Ride (traditionally held in Boulder, Montana)
• CTVA Annual Fun Run (Capital Trail Vehicle Association based out of Helena)
• Labor Day Ride out of Basin and Boulder Montana

Joining a Ride

Before going on a club-sanctioned ride, we indicate the type and difficulty of ride and what machine restrictions may apply. For example, some of the Forest Service lands may have restricted vehicle widths or exclusions on types of machines that are allowed on the trail. The ride leader will be aware of the conditions and restrictions and will advise riders of potential issues with their machines or trail difficulties.
