I've got 5 working dirt bikes and 3 rollers. Plus a 4x4 pick em up. Hope this helps.:confused:

Oops one of those rollers doesn't actually roll. Sorry for the confusion.

In California there are 357,000 off road vehicles. Try this link http://www.arb.ca.gov/newsrel/nr012194.htm
You may be able to extrapolate an estimate of the national number by calculating populations. I think there are about 33 million people in California and about 283 Million people in the U.S. Therefore, about 12% of the nation lives in California. If you assume California has about 12% of the nations off-road vehicles, that would mean there are about 3,000,000 off-road vehicles nationwide.

Of course, this is beginning to sound alot like the Florida election

Also here are Canada registration numbers:

Hi Ivan,

Here's some related info that may at least give you some good background/support stuff from real scientists who are getting fed up with the Enviros (I know you said it's not an us vs them deal, but what the heck), and some insight into Clinton's effect on the current state of our National Forrests/Parks

Here's another that exposes some of their crap
