Riding Elec Quad, With Help

Filed in archive ATV , ATV Safety , Learning , Off-Road , Videos on March 12, 2007

I knew it was a sign of the times when my youngest son Aj started climbing on the quads by himself, before he could walk. He was simply not content to sit and watch his older brother have all the fun on his quads or in the jeep, and he damn sure wasn't going to be a passenger all his life. He's like his dad, a control freak.

Aj isn't even 2 years old, yet he can almost ride this electric quad. In this video, he's still going through some training with mom, as he learns the finer points of steering control. (He's got the throttle control down to a science, go figure.) He gets a few corrective inputs from the instructor, but for the most part knows what he wants to do and where he wants to go.

Even though his older brother was curb rated shortly after his second birthday, Aj will come in to his own very quickly.
