4 WILDRIDES is centred in the QUINTE, Ontario, Canada region. This offers us easy access to the forest access trails, logging roads, and trails of the southern region of the Canadian Shield.

 In the beginning there were Ric (Bushy), Mike( NastyCJ), Bud(Twisted) & Curtis (Iron Pig) ... sitting in one of our garages, sipping a cool one, planning our next offroad run, helping each other fix, build our trucks.

(... For pictures from years a go when this group began to assemble ( like coagulated porridge), go to ...  http://www.mudmeisters.4t.com/  and http://www.trailmeisters.4t.com/)

But the makeup of the group has changed ... by expanding & including the people & vehicles that best fill the roll of a 4WILDRIDE. Now we include Steve (Badthumper), Steve (Lowrad), Ken (Bart), Jano (CrazyFrenchman), Darin (Certified Nuts), & The Brown Bros. (Ben, Adam ).

 These members are dedicated to running their rigs as often as they can, on trails that challenge both the driver & vehicle & at the same time ... socialize with the other members. Most of us live within 30 minutes of each other. We assist each other when needed & leave empty beer cans at each other's residence.

As a BASIC, our trucks run 33 to 35 inch tires, most are locked at the rear as a minimum & all are winched. Beyond that, a front locker or snorkel is about the only differentiating factor. This means that all trails are equally challenging within the group & THAT is what makes it fun.
