Cut & Pasted from the CSPC announcement:
"Yamaha's repair includes the installation of a spacer on the rear wheels as well as the removal of the rear anti-sway bar to help reduce the chance of rollover and improve vehicle handling, and continued installation of half doors and additional passenger handholds where these features have not been previously installed to help keep occupants' arms and legs inside the vehicle during a rollover and reduce injuries. Owners of the affected Rhinos should stop using them and call their dealer to schedule an appointment to have repairs made once they are available and to take advantage of a free helmet offer."

Wow.. my post was deleted because I said that meeting face to face was not a good idea? Nice..
I didn't call anyone out. I didn't call anyone names. I didn't make any kind of threat. I merely critisized your idea and you wiped me out TRX? Censoring opther people's opinions isn't a great way to promote unity sir.

good luck finding customers who will pay to play and ride on a human waste dumpsite.
I personally drove by the site of Mudfest yesterday... and the cattle were standing up to theit bellies in the main mud hole. Two days before an event, and you still have the livestock pooping in the main mudpit and everywhere else? How is that different that the other site?

Being a Rock miner since 1995 and an ATV rider since 1978 I can honestly see both sides of the spectrum. I honestly believe that there is enough land for both a needed industry and also for the recreational user. I will say this about the pollution and such.If you ever get a chance to ride in a quarry you will see clean lakes and usualy an all around clean enviroment.We as an Industry put alot of money back into the enviroment as well as our nieghboring communities.Take a ride to the hump or 8th street and look at all the garbage that the majority of the riders leave there.Alot of people love to talk enviriment But are also quick to throw there garbage on the ground. I just realy hope we can get some closure on this whole mining water pollution issue soon. Im not here to saopbox or flame just chiming in from the otherside is all.
Amen brother..

It's official.. Got this email last Sunday.
ATTENTION
Effective Monday January 21, 2008
Any & all racing type quads such as Banshees & Rafters will B permanently barred from Underhill land effective Monday. N the future owners of racing type quads R welcome 2 enter Plantbamboo only if they don’t bring their racing type Quad when they enter.
N other words if U bring a racing type quad U will not B allowed entry at Plantbamboo
Edward Underhill
And then this one this morning....
Dear PLantbamboo,
Portions of this letter isn’t in any way intended to sander, although I will admit that some of this is a response to a couple of individuals who responded to the flyer that I sent out Sunday stating what I decided is necessary.. The most difficult part for me was in me having to ban all racing quads I would have preferred to selectively enforce but I know that would be impossible, so I apologize to those of you that have racing quads and have respected my rules the rules. Please remember that even though I am not allowing you to enter with said quads you are welcome to come out any time.
Explaining my decision to ban all racing type quads this doesn’t include 4x4 off reading quads. Sense 2004 when we first opened Plantbamboo myself and other that I have assigned responsible to help keep Plantbamboo safe have spent 95 present of our time attempting to get those that bring their racing type quads to Plantbamboo to abide by our rules. After explaining the conditions to these individuals most of the time that simply disregards them and very often make every effort to flaunt our rules that they can.
Three or four weeks ago was when the proverbial straw broke the camel’s back. A edit that was driving a racing type quad almost ran over a 4 year child. Sense then I have pondered how best to implement the best means of control those that don’t give a damn one way or other who they may be endangered as result of their actions. During this timed it did most of the patrolling myself. At first I threatened to expel those that apparently have never learned to read my signs, I explained to their meaning and intent of why I had posted the signs. For some reason the majority of those that ride the racing quads not only have bad eye site, and to top this off they must be unable to remember my rules even when I read and explained the rules to them. If anyone that has been riding the racing quads hasn’t seen this coming then what can I say. If you feel a need it’s fine and dandy to blame me and call as my names as you like I am adult who has to make decisions based on logic not because it feels good I knowing that some of those that come out to ride the racing quads are responsible people and that this decision may cause them discomfort but I had much rather do that than to have done nothing about endangering other.
If a child is hurt or god forbid killed because I failed to correct this problem I would be able to live with myself knowing that I could have stopped this high speed driving that not only endangers children but all that comes to Plantbamboo.
I decided that if banning racing quads was to mean that plantbamboo no longer will makes enough money to stay open I felt and I feel that I had much rather close Planbamnboo down than to have a child hurt . No I AM NOT LOSING PLANTBAMBOO DOWN I AM SIMPLY CORRECTING A PROBLEM THAT IS LONG OVER DEW FOR ME TO ADDRESS.
My farm isn’t a race track contrary to what most of those that come out and ride the racing quads must think. Moroso motor sports park facility is was made and is set up for racing type quads.
Please remember that anyone That has a racing quad still welcome to enter Pantbambioo if they don’t bring their racing quads with them to plantbamboo
My decision to ban any and all racing type quads is final and there will not be any exceptions. In the future if you come to Plantbamboo and bring a racing Quad with you will have to take it home before you enter.
It will be your responsibility to leave racing quads home. It is not our to responsibility find or see a racing quad in your vehicle or trailer when you are entering Plantbamboo. If you find a way to hide or we fail to notice a racing quad in your vehicle or a trailer when you enter then you have disregarded this rule, when we see that you have a racing quad with you will be ask to leave and on refund and never you will be banned for life from entering Plantbamboo.
Said done and final ,
Edward Underhill

I'm the Business Manager of a Civil Engineering Unit for Dept of Homeland Security. We maintain approximately $11B worth of Coast Guard shore facilities. I pay the bills and supervise approximately 60 design engineers and support staff. Never a dull moment.
Used to a ton of work with the Coast Guard - use to sell them all the big grey dock fenders that keep the ships from smacking the concrete piers. Small world.. I am part owner of an industrial rubber products distribution business- we sell all kinds of conveyor belt, conveyor components, industrial hose & v-belts, drive systems, gasketing materials, etc, etc.. If it in a concrete plant, asphalt plant, or rock quarry, I sell it.

Jesus, what's next? Are we gonna all meet up at the bike rack after school? This ought to make RR real interesting this weekend. Ok, sorry one last comment. I'll be having jello shots on the big buggy w/ the K that looks like superman. If you care to have one then come by and say hi. If not I'll still be waving in sincerity when you go by. What you chose to do is up to you. If I make it out there, I'm afraid I'll have to pass. Enjoy your weekend.
