I guess you could always get a couple of REALLY strong magnets
and "rig" them to the front of said atv :o :o :o

There isnt much you can do , except try to catch someone in the act. Even then, NOT much you can do because whoever done it is probably hunting there, and a confrontation with someone carrying
wouldnt be a smart move.

I had this happen to me back when I was a young boy of 15 years. This trail ran behind a group  of houses the trail got purposely littered with roofing nails. After receiving to flat tires my friends and I returned and dumped a whole box of nails all over there yards. We also left notes on there doors saying anymore roofing nails on trail will result in round up spray on your yards.
Never had an issue after that.  8)

I got nailed one time in my jeep. I took out about 10 roofing nails with the large washers on them.. Ruined the tires.

Miami dade it is still legal to ride on unpaved roads, so I think it is,but if it isn't Police out there dont mess with you as long as you have your sticker. they check every now and then, but the nails thing, there are some roads that cross in front of farmers lands but I guess they dont use certain roads and those are the ones "I" guess farmers throw a couple of nails. I got 1 found it when I was washing the bike but they take thier time cause they heat them to bend them so they face up I thought I had a pic of 2 of them but I deleted them

Yeah, I once hit the front half of a trailer that was sunk in a deep hole. I far prefer nails.

 We use to ride in Homestead redlands when we were kids. We use to cut through some corn fields until one day the owner put a sheet of plywood down with nails sticking up.

   I hate that. Every once in a while I would find crap on my lawn because some lazy azz doesn't want to clean up after his dog.
