I'm glad I didn't ask that question when I joined the southern sxs forum because I was still on a atv. I joined the forum for the people I met at bell co. And as far as saying a sxs could go places I couldn't go on my atv, I would have accepted that challenge from anyone and made that person look like a fool. I have ridden with people who were on sxs that slowed up the whole group. I don't think that just because we have a sxs now that we should feel so superior that we won't ride with atvs. We are all out there to have a good time and enjoy the trails.

William, you still own an atv. I can't ride with you any more (or any less).....

Is that right?

Backwards!

I want to see you do it on your atv....................

can't show you now, if you read the post again and you will see that I now have a sxs. I rode with the southern sxs guys when I had my yellow can am 800 max xt, they never came to anything I couldn't do. In fact when a Rhino flipped over backwards I rode up to the Rhino, set the brake got off helped get the Rhino on its wheels and then got back on my atv and climed the rest of the hill. So you got me , I can't climb that hill for you to see.

Probably would still have my Can Am if I could have found a way to keep cup holders attached to my helmet.

From my experience climbing is 95% the driver. Skill and big set of ballz makes alot of difference. A few times I have gone up hills that made one those two pretty much disappear.... LOL

Is that DOT approved? LOL Can I still ride with you guys if I have a two seater and sit sideways? lol

So what are you saying Big-R? You going to make it SXS/ATV site?

This place is the same, has been for years now. Nothing different about it.

doesnt matter what u ride!like BigR said; u got to have BALLS! u prob wouldnt walk where we ride anyways!

I can vouch for Bigbore on that one. I was right there helping the guy on the Rhino getting back on four wheels. He drove halfway up 87Y with his CanAm, stopped in a very nasty spot, got off, then proceeded to crawl right up the rest of the way with ease. Those CanAm two-ups are a beast.

Post by one of the former Admin stating the position of the Southern SxS Riders.

Although this is a SidexSide group, we realize that there are people out there that own an ATV and not a SidexSide that may want to sign up as a member because they are considering a SidexSide purchase in the future or to see what the SidexSide riding experience is all about. Because of that we will not deny membership to an ATV owner that wants to join the group. We will only ask that they abide by the rules of the group as written. The main thing being safety. We ask that at rides where we go to a private facility like Coal Creek, That rules the facility has for ATV's such as helmets and no riding double be followed.

So atv's can join?

I don't think anyones asking that the site become an atv site, they want to join the members only ride from what I understand.

Yep, that power with the long wheelbase is an awesome set up for sure.

J,

The ATVs that are members here were exception to the rules. Usually the ATVers have been on the site and have built great relationships with the members. Most of the members do not want just any ATVer showing up on our official rides. That is the reason for the whole membership idea. It was for people that enjoy not only trail riding but, trial riding on side by sides.
