Ridding the Buggy

Seems impossible, but Kadizzler took his first ride on an ATV or whatever you want to call it. Town folks, and city folks have gone nuts buying four wheel buggies that they crawl through the Forest Service roads with. In our neighborhood three neighbors bought the buggies. The damn things cost close to thirty thousand dollars. Once. you purchase one then you join a group. The group rolls out into the forest on the dirt roads. Here is where the problem starts. The first person in the group and his sidekick get clean air. Behind them is a trail of dust and the next ten get to breath dirt, and ride in a fog of dust. 

Noise is the problem. The damn things are noisy. For some reason to be a he man now. you need to make noise. 

Kadizzle will confess he likes to ride out in the boondocks. Kadizzle takes the little Yamaha xt 250.  The small motorcycle is quiet, compared to the buggy boys.  Secondly it is not much of dust producer.  At most if Kadizzle goes out it is just with another person on another motorcycle.  In conclusion Kadizzle likes the cycle option better. Last must mention on a cycle you don't look through a dirty plastic windshield. You feel like you are there.  For thirty grand you could buy two or three nice motorcycles. One flavor for each type of ride.
