MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • October 9, 2022
ATV registrations topped 80,000 this year for the first time. Since 2012, the number of ATVs in Maine has climbed 32 percent. That’s despite the fact that about a quarter of ATVs in Maine are side-by-sides, the larger machines that can hold anywhere from two to six riders, making it possible for an entire family to now own only one machine. The growth may continue in Maine, which boasts one of the nation’s largest ATV trail systems with 5,800 miles of trails.
