Always wear clothing suited to the type of riding� ATV riding
requires special protective clothing for comfort and to reduce the
chance of injury�

Your helmet is the most important piece of protective gear for safe
riding� An approved helmet can prevent a severe head injury�

Do not depend on sunglasses for proper eye protection� A pair of
goggles or a helmet face shield oers the protection for your eyes.
They should be kept clean and be a shatterproof design.

Off-road style gloves with knuckle pads are the best for comfort
and protection�
4� Boots
The best footwear is a pair of strong over -the-calf boots with heels,
like motocross boots.

Always wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and
legs� Riding pants with kneepads and a jersey with shoulder pads
provide the best protection.
