Default Banning atv's on crown land?

Is this true I'm currently in the marked for a quad, and a friend of mine told me that there's been talk of banning atv's on crown land, by the Alberta government, I'm sure it's just a rumor!

Sensitive subject. I would watch the Castle area situation closely and go from there.

What's going on in the castle? Is it in regards to people squaring all year, or the other parks projects in the making?

They might ban them in certain areas, especially around Calgary, but they won't ban them on all crown land. At least not right away. I'd buy your quad and not worry about it, but remain vigilant.

I heard a rumor, that it was just a rumor to cut the price of quads down.

Here's hoping it works!

Certain areas might because of meatheads but not all, just don't become a meathead and ride respectfully and you will enjoy the adventure.
