The PHOENIX ATV/UTV CLUB is a Phoenix-based ATV / UTV / SxS club established in the Fall of 2018 by a group of individuals and veteran ride leaders who are dedicated to the sport of safe and responsible Off-Highway-Vehicle (OHV) riding in Arizona. The PAUC Club started its operations with the initial setup of its Facebook Group that grew to 600+ members in one year. Their internet website went live in Feb 2020. The club focus is on Rides, Social Events, and Educational Forums/Trail Talks.

Anybody live in the Phoenix area that has a 15-16 sportsman 1000 empire exhaust industries needs one so they can build my duels not sideways but I live in Oregon
Help please
I posted your question on our 800+ member Facebook group but did not get any response. Sorry... I hope all is well in your part of Oregon. We had our share of AZ wildfires a month ago but nothing like what your state is experiencing. I have RV friends that have been RVing along the OR coast and just headed inland to Bend, OR. The air quality was at the hazardous level and their RV park is being used by fire crews. Hope it is controlled soon. I have visited your state a number of times. Be safe and be well... Happy Trails... Bob M, PAUC President

There is Arizona Peace Trail Atlas available for $40 online that highlights the 700-mile routes from Yuma up to Kingman and east from the Colorado river to Salome & Wickiup AZ. It highlights available gas and hotel accommodations at various towns. Most people do sections of the AZPT and explore various side-trails to hidden destination highlights not shown in the Atlas.

I have an old 2017 GPX file from one of the original trailblazer guys that set up the AZPT but this forum does not allow posting of that extension file. You can also find more current GPX tracks on the AZPT website and regional SxS clubs out there like the Bouse Ghost Riders club and Arizona SunRiders OHV Club. You should also contact and join those Facebook groups.

Happy Trails...
