Ummmmm, My name is Kim (bobby) and I am an ATV rider. (hi bobby). I had a 1985 Tecate back in the day, but then I sold it. Later in life a bought a 350 raptor, then, I sold it. Then I found two rivers atv club and bought a 2006 Kodiak. I sold that one too. I will be buying a 07 Wolverine soon, I hope to keep that one for a while. I live in Bettendorf with my lovely wife. Paul Pelzer is my hero.

Hi. My name is Matt I live in Moline with the little lady(Kerry) and three children(Zach 12,Blake 12, & Katlynn 9). Between us we own a '00 polaris trailblazer, a '98 suzuki lt80, 2 '95 yamaha blasters, and obviously an '04 yfz450. We have been riding together for about 7yrs now as a family, But me and my son have been at it for around 10yrs. I first heard of the club through a co-worker, but it was grizzly660 that got me to come in as a member. Even though my first ride was short lived at Brushy Ridge it seemed like there was a good group of people that loves to ride.
By the way the second crash of the day did end my friend with 2 torn ligaments in his shoulder, 3 badly banged up ribs that they couldnt tell if they were broke or not, and a jammed thumb. Wish I could have stayed longer to see ubnpast crash!

My name is Chuck(Boomer) and i just registered on this forum today. I found out about this club after talking with Tom the owner of the new atv park going in Atkinson. My two boys and I have just recently purchased our first quads. I have a 2007 sportsman 450, my nine year old Matt has a 2007 roketa 110sla, and my seven year old has a 2007 sportsman 90. I am looking forward to joining the club and having lots of fun family time with other riders. See you all out on the trails. Chuck

Hi, I'm Tex I ride a KFX450 I have a couple of years experience. My fiance found this site online for me.
We're moving back to Iowa to the Quad Cities area in a couple of months. I will be looking for some new atv friends who like to do aggressive riding. I am also considering getting into racing.

Hey everybody. I am tex's fiance. Hence....texsgirl. I'm responding for both of us. Tex is not as computer saavy as me, so I set his profile up for him. But in the future, while he learns how to sign on and do this himself, I may be asking questions for him - but will sign on only as me.
Hope y'all don't mind.
How aggressive? He likes hills, jumps, catching air...the more the better. He's always looking for a new challenge.
What kind of racing? Don't know yet, but he wants to look into it. See what his options are.
Do I ride? No. I have considered it, but I am not as brave as him. I do really enjoy standing on the sidelines watching him, taking pictures, and cheering him on. I go with him on most of his rides and just support him 100% in what he loves to do.
Nice talking to y'all. We'll be back in Iowa end of the summer. We'll be sure to look you up.

I am Leesa Dildine, the grizzly660's better 1/2. My first day out, never rode before (and I mean never) was at the Badlands. OMG what a blast!!! Got really muddy, broke my bike (the one I borrowed for the day) and I was told that it's not official until you fall off. So, I guess I have one more thing to accomplish before I qualify as an official ATV rider. Oh, that and I fully intend to be the next 'most improved' so look out newbies I'm rollin' in with my spirit guides and alot of determination. All I need now is a bike of my own so I guess the Big Griz and I are going shopping this week. Blessings to all, Leesa!!!

My name is Randy, I live in Hennepin (about 65 miles straight east of quad cities off I-80). Looking to join an active club where members get together to ride often. I have 3 quads, 2 polaris sportsman's 4x4's and just purchases a Polaris Outlaw 500. I ride frequently in northwest wisconsin where my parents own a second home on a lake with tons of trail less than a mile away.
I am also planning to be at the new Atkinson Park on Sunday. Maybe I will meet some of you there. I will be on my black Polaris Outlaw.

Thanks for the welcome's. To answer Motherships questions, I have been looking for a club to join for the last few months but find that most clubs on the internet are not active, webpage is not updated, not many rides scheduled, etc. I like what I see so far of your club. As far as being single, NOT. I have been married 15 years and have a 12 year old daughter. As far as my job, I work for a very large publicly traded company that does major work for Caterpillar. I travel to all the cat plants around the world and sell our services. It's fun but requires a ton of travel. Some times months at a time. I spent most of my summer in Europe. I saw your club through a link in ATV connection forums (I think), and you are relatively close to where I live. As for my toys, My 96 Polaris has been retired from active riding and I leave it at my dads place in Northern Wisconsin for him use around the house hauling leaves, firewood, ice fishing, etc. My 2006 4x4 is really my mud riding quad and hunting quad that has been taken over by my wife (she has some back problems and it rides really nice), I was looking for something that was a little faster and more fun to ride aggressively so I bought my Outlaw a month ago while riding up north in Wisconsin. My daughter is registered for a safety class in Sept. and is wanting her own machine. I am contemplating a 2008 Polaris Sportsman 300 4x4 for her.
One can never have enough 4 wheelers. The down side is, I had to upgrade and purchase a new trailer that would haul them all.
Hope to see some of you Sunday.

Who are you? Kelly What do you ride? Mine = '06 450 Kodiak Outdoorsman Edition wifes = '07 350 grizzly IRS How much riding experience do you have? 3 years ATV but rode dirt bikes when young so crashing through the woods is not new for me. Where did you hear about the club? Was doing a search and found this and other clubs listed at a site for Iowa DNR.

It's me everybody.I have the filthy GRIZZLY 700. I have been on a few rides with the club so far an I have enjoyed everyone.I just dont have the time right now as I'm getting ready to start deer hunting.The sport of bowhunting is very challenging an takes a lot of time to pre pair for the hunt if I want to do any good. I will join in on another club ride as soon as I can. Until then have fun an be very safe. FILTHY_RED

Hi, New member here Bob N. (a.k.a. rancherbob) from Davenport. I just joined the club at the October 07 meeting. I havent been able to make either of the Oct rides but have my eye on the Nov 4 at Cliff's. I've ridden friends utility quads in the past on very flat terrain but was surely enough to get me hooked. I bought my first quad, a Red Honda TRX420FE Rancher 4x4, in September and have been on one ride at Atkinson a few weeks ago to just spend some time getting familiar with my new machine. Overall I consider myself a novice when it comes to tackling 'insane terrain'. I learned of the club while shopping for a quad and the dealer had one of the club's mag's laying around. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and go on some cool rides in the coming months and years! -RancherBob
