As with all 4-wheeler rides, make safety of yourself your highest priority. Always wear your helmet anytime you are going to be on your 4-wheeler, no matter how short the ride. There are a lot of great options in safety gear that not only protects your body, they let you look good while your riding too. Also, check your 4-wheeler out fully pre-ride. Tightening those bolts and checking gas and air pressure in your tires will make the difference between a great ride and you sitting there waiting for someone to come get you because you haven't maintained your 4-wheeler.
Pine Center 4-wheeler trails have yellow directional signs showing you the ways to go. Please follow them because these are the only areas that 4-wheeler riders are allowed to use.
