just an idea but make sure the land really is his. go to the local clerk and ask for a copy of the property deed. im sayin this cause a guy neighboring a place we ride told the D.E.C. it was his and didnt want no bikes quads ect., on it, so we checked and it wasnt his. we contacted the local owner and asked him if we'd check and fix his farms barbed wire fence once a year or so if we could ride he said we coulda rode anyway as long as we kept er clean, but i already offered so ill be doin fence maintenance soon but thats cool. this also works great for hunting snowmobiling and fishing privelages. help out these guys with fence repair, snow plowing, mowing lawns ect., and youd be suprised who'll let you use their land. we've got access to at least 1300 acres within a mile for maybe two days work tops. sounds like a bargain to me. just my $.02 Ed
