10 Reasons You Should Be On Your ATV This Summer
By John Funk, September 20, 2017
What's more fun in the summer than riding your ATV? There's pretty much nothing better, which is why we compiled some pretty compelling reasons for you to make some time to get out there and quench your need for speed. No excuses! You deserve to have some fun.
1. Great Weather
"It's too cold" is no longer a valid excuse for staying indoors. The temperatures are warm, the skies are clear and there will be plenty of bright and shiny days to spend outside for the next couple of months.
2. Exercise
Pumping weights, running and doing crunches are great ways to exercise and obtain good health, but they can be downright boring. Believe it or not, riding is a great way to work your heart, build muscle and even release pent-up energy.
3. Stress Relief
During a long week of work, stress can eat away at you bit by bit. Pumping out some hard laps, whether it be on the track or deep in the woods, can quickly wipe away those worrisome anxieties.
4. Much-Needed Therapy
Who needs a shrink when you have an ATV? We always feel relieved and rejuvenated after a long day of riding. And it will probably save you quite a bit of cash in the long run.
5. The Great Outdoors
Especially in the spring, summer and fall months, there's a sense of renewing and peace when experiencing the outdoors. Don't stay isolated in your house or office any longer. Get out and experience the healing benefits that nature has to offer.
6. Get Inspired
When you're lacking motivation, get out and ride. An enjoyable ride can lift inspiration blockers and clear your head of negativity, thereby making room for a fresh perspective.
7. The Need For Speed
Most of us who ride quads have a need for speed that must be quenched on a regular basis. You can relieve this addiction by riding a roller coaster, sticking the pedal to the metal in a sports car or by pointing a bicycle downhill and hanging on for dear life. But we can't think of a better way to satisfy this craving than by grabbing a handful of throttle and swiftly clicking through the gears on your quad.
8. Time With Family And Friends
Looking for fun ways to spend quality time with family and friends? What better way to accomplish this than a day at a riding area spent with your loved ones?
9. Adrenaline Fix
Adrenaline is a hormone produced by the body that stimulates heart rate and dilates blood vessels and air passages. It's naturally produced when your body experiences physically exhilarating situations. So why store it and waste it when you can release and enjoy it? It's a chemical cocktail that's likely to occur many times while out riding.
10. Have Fun
The most important reason for riding is plain and simple: to have fun. It's necessary to have regular doses of fun in our lives and it's more than likely that a day or weekend out riding will end in a good ole time.
