We are going camping in Maine this weekend!! Gonna scope out a few trails in the area. It's still mud season, and registration doesn't open up till the end of May, but it'll still be good for walking and hiking, and talking to some locals. If any of you guys are around the Denmark area and would like to give a little tour, we'd be very appreciative.
Anybody use their RTV for recreational off road fun?

For those of you who use your RTV for fun, are you wearing helmets? If so, what kind of helmet?
I see "UTV" helmets with a big visor, but no face shield. I've always preferred a full face shield when I had motorcycles decades ago. Keeps the bugs, wind and bugs from hitting your face.
I'm +30 years out from helmet tech, Whatcha got?

I rode Hatfield and McCoy trails in WV and Ride Royal Blue in the TN mountains that both required a helmet. Wife and I both wore a half helmet. Didn't care for it. We only rode the easier trails. The ones marked 4 (very challenging) we had no desire to try. A couple guys in our group tipped their Honda Pioneers on the tough stuff. I do not wear a helmet on our rides around our property or back roads and trails in our area of SE Ohio. We are retired and ride slow to moderate. Not in any hurry.
We use Street and Steel from cycle gear. Being in a fully enclosed cab, full face isn't necessary. No bugs and still wanna hear the music, so we chose a simple half helmet. Legal requirements like Doc said.
