Unhappy Trail Safety, tell the country it matters!

Just a short time ago on a ride with my children, my son's ATV's brakes suddenly gave out, he could not slow down for a turn; his four wheeler went over the side of a hill with him holding tight. My son’s wheeler hit... a tree and threw him off. I was riding my own ATV behind him and I can’t even begin to explain how I felt when I saw he couldn’t slow down. Tears still fill my eyes when I think about this moment and “what if” fill my head. We maintain our machines; my son was wearing a helmet and was on a wheeler that was right for his size and skills. Luckily my son walked away with a few cuts and bruises however I still ask myself everyday what would have happened if he was seriously injured, how long would it take for us to get him out of the woods and in the hands of people that could help…

During the month of June there is local Pepsi Refresh Grant up for voting at Promote ATV Safety with Safe Trails and Education for all Riders. | Pepsi Refresh Everything
Go to the site, register by giving your name, email address and birthday and then click the vote button. The money from the grant will save lives. What I need from you is to visit the page everyday and cast a vote for APPLE VALLEY WHEELERS and ask those you know to do the same.
