Thankfully, for now, the only stickers we have in Texas are the ones they give your kid when you walk into WalMart.

Move to WV. Heck the only stickers we think of are racing stickers! Plus there is plenty of mud and trails to ride on. My son and I can take off from the house and ride all day and never touch the same trail twice. And heres a good one. There legal to ride on the roads.Man I love it here!

CARB = the most useless organization known to man. Well, besides the IRS and EPA.

Since I'm a big three wheeler fan, they're right up there as well.
I swear, most of the "issues" these agencies bring up is to just ensure people working at them keep their jobs....or they're just trying to look like they're doing something.

I've been reading alot on the boards about what will happen to "Green Sticker", 2 strokes when the EPA regulations take effect in 2006. One of the things I've heard is, they will become a "Red Sticker" or " You won't be able to ride anymore".
While conducting business at DMV today, I posed the question about Pre-2002 "Green sticker" 2 strokes, becoming "Red Sticker" after 2006. I was handed the information packet that DMV employees go by, and after talking to the Manager on-duty, I was told that once a "Green Sticker" OHV, always a"Green Sticker" OHVNot being "totally satisfied" with their answers. I called CARB(Caifornia Air Resource Board) and talk to a female(name withheld) and asked the same question to her. After a few minutes. She told me the same thing. If the vehicle has a "Green Sticker" now, then, it will have a "Green Sticker" until it no longer exists. If you would like to call CARB and hear it yourself, their number is 800-242-4450. Lt. Dan

In reality, the green and red sticker issue only effects people buying 2003 or newer 2 strokes and some 4 stroke m/c.
quadduck, I have several riding places within 30 mins. of my house and a National Forest 1 hour away myselfCa. might have the sticker registration, but, for the $25 we pay for 2 years worth of registration, I FEEL we, get our money back into the OHV parks. Went to Pismo this Thanksgiving and they remodeled the Rest Rooms at the Entrance Stations and put more permanant rest rooms out in the dunesOur local parks also get grant money through the green/red sticker funds. Even though we have people that want to close our facilities down, the picture isn't "has" black as outsiders think. When I read some threads here on this forum about other states and their liberal ways, we are not the only "screwed up" state.
Also, you "DO NOT" have to register your quad/ohv in Ca. Just don't let it leave your (or anyone elses) private property. Once you do that, it can be cited for being on a public road with no current registration.

quadduck, Wa. or Oregon. don't want us to move up therebut, they don't have a problem taking our money when we are huntingthat's alright though. All in all, every place, has their share of problemsBR>
wifesquad, The fencing is to help get the riff raffs out of closed areas, so more areas are not shut down. When I was at Pimso this last Thanksgiving, there was more riding this year, then last year. They took a lot of the orange fencing downOf course when the Snowy Plower breed next year, temporiary fencing will go back up. Just hope it all comes down again.

LOLYour right, you didn't. But, that's as far north, as I've made it, and they have the same attitude that Washingtonians havetowards usBR>
And, that would be coolabout riding with our kids, at the dunes

Yea, CPSC ranks pretty high. I would put IRS, EPA, CPSC and then CARB, reasoning behind carb being last, is it doesn't effect every freaking state, like the others.
And of courseI reserve the right, to change my mind at any given time

You poor Californians just remember stay in the golden state, it rains to much in Washington.
Posted by: quadduck
Hey don't believe the hype! Its so dusty up here year a round that it makes so cal look wet. Plus this state has no where to ride especially if you move here from out of state.So just stay in California, so you guys don't bring your stickers with ya!
Posted by: quadduck
Okay uh, its really dusty even when it rains, yeah thats the ticket. Like its a wierd phenomenom or something, so just stay in the golden state or I heard that Oregon is nice.All right you got me, us warshingtonians shouldn't try pulling a fast one on you FORNIA ERS!
BTW IF you liked it up by Bellingham You'd love it down here by Olympia we have capitol forest in our back yard and Tahuya State Forest About an hour and a 1/2 away.
Posted by: quadduck
Just giving you guys a bad time, I don't know if you guys know it or not but a lot of the residents in my state really don't like out of staters moving here, you ought to see the bumper stickers . personally I would rather have the riding ops that is in california too.

That is what I had always been told, by countless ranger's and DMV employee's. Thank's for the verification rescuediver, I have way to many of these thing's to have them turn into red sticker's. Would have to move to another state, just to ride all year.
quadduck, It may rain too much in Washington, but it doesn't rain near enough here in California. Gosh I love riding in mud.

OK so which is it? Muddy? Dusty? Your not fooling me. I have been there once, awesome experience. I rode a 2 day isde qualifier in early august '87 in Bellingham Wa. The sweetest trail's ever, nice and WET. Possibly the most fun I have ever had on a motorcycle. 150 plus miles a day. Closest was a enduro out of Eureka Ca. They ran it out of the fair ground's and you went right into fern lined trail's, over 90 miles of them. I thought I had died and gone to heaven.

quadduck, I have heard that about your "neighbor's". I have considered moving to wa. Like I said I loved the riding there in August for gosh sakes. I dont even start my dirt bike's in august here. Way too dusty/dangerous for me at this point in life. Have also considered Idaho, have heard there is awesome single track trails there. Probubly will end up in Nev. just to stay near family. Youngest is sr in hs wants to go to college near by so I am here for 5yrs minimum. Oldest moved out tues. I do have to admit Bluetickracing makes WV sound good too, just too far away for me.
rescuediver, I was at pismo in july (go once a year) and I noticed a few improvements also. I too think we have it pretty good here in ca. I am concerned that the one thing that every place I ride seems to have money for, is fences. At carniege especially, all those neat trails along the fence in front were fun. I understand that they are trying to make it seem like no one rides there, but I have been riding there since '74, it is just sad to me.

I was able to avoid all their wisdom by not getting a quad until my wife was in her early 40's, I think that was past their age requirement's. But for those affected by them and all their wisdom, please feel free to fit them in and change the order. Won't bother me at all.
