  • Beginner's Guide to Safe Off-road Driving, Part 2, Edwin Ployhart

    Beginner’s Guide to Safe Off-road Driving, Part 1 Here

    In the second and final installment of our guide, we relay tips for responsible driving and off-road etiquette.

    Tip #5: Stay on Target

    Although it might sound appealing to blaze your own path, it behooves you to stay on designated trails while driving. Venturing into woods or other sparsely populated areas will make it difficult for you to find your way back to the main trail, as well as difficult for others to find you if you injure yourself. Also, many areas are not suited for vehicles; you could end up damaging your four-wheeler and incurring costly repairs. Just as costly are fines you could receive for damaging private property or land set aside for preservation purposes.

    Tip #6: Check Your Ego

    Unless you are a professional driver, attempting dangerous stunts is something best left to the imagination. Not only could you damage your vehicle, but you risk paralysis or worse by trying maneuvers you are not qualified to perform. There is plenty of terrain to cover without risking wild jumps and other tricks.

    Tip #7: Watch Your Speed

    Although four-wheelers are built to handle rough conditions, all it takes is hitting a rock or rut at just the right angle for your vehicle to flip or tumble, taking you with it. Going fast is acceptable, but stick to speeds with which you are comfortable. Additionally, most areas suitable for four-wheelers feature beautiful scenery. Do not drive so quickly that you do not have time to take in the view.

    Tip #8: Driving Through Ruts

    Over time, ruts will deepen, making them more dangerous to drive through. To safely drive through a rut, keep one vehicle in the groove and the other on the trail.

  • Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), Edwin Ployhart
    December, 2010
    As a pilot and aviation enthusiast, I am a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA). Founded by a group of aviators who wanted to build their own aircraft, EAA now supports aviation lovers of all kinds, including those interested in antique airplanes, war birds, contemporary manufactured aircraft, ultralights, helicopters, and home-built aircraft. With headquarters in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, EAA reaches out to anyone with a passion for flying.

    The Association has more than 1,000 chapters around the world, filled with recreational aviators who gather to share their passion for flying and discuss practical aspects of the hobby such as safety, restoration, and many other topics. Along with providing a meeting place for enthusiasts, EAA stays heavily involved in government advocacy, lobbying to preserve the freedoms associated with aviation and striving to reduce overregulation. The Association also offers the Young Eagles program, which provides opportunities for youth ages 8 to 17 to fly in a general aviation aircraft. Volunteer pilots maintain the program, taking more than 1.5 million kids on flights since 1992.

    The Young Eagles Academy offers aviation camps for kids aged 12 to 18 that teach the basics of aviation through a combination of workshops, lessons, and hands-on activities. Beginning and intermediate topics include aviation history, rocketry, balloon flight, and aeromodeling. Advanced classes feature ground school, aircraft construction and maintenance, and in-the-air experiences. Aside from programs and chapters, EAA also maintains the Oshkosh-based AirVenture Museum, which displays an impressive collection of 250 antique planes, provides a hands-on interactive kids’ gallery, and offers vintage airplane flights.
