ATV Tour
"ATV" stands for "All-Terrain Vehicle", which
means ATVs work on all terrains. They're also
called "four-wheels motivated vehicles" or "all
terrain four-wheels cross country vehicles".
They're the most popular vehicles at the moment,
yet they're not common in this country. The
reason is that there are not many professional
fields for ATVs. Many people like ATVs in
foreign countries, especially in North America.
People use them to travel across farms and
fields and they're also very popular vehicles
for leisure usage

Blue Cat ATV Club
Some people used to call them "beach cars", which
is wrong. Along with soft sand, ATVs can run on
rough surfaces such as hills, roads with rocks, sand
pits, water pits, and 30 to 60 degrees uphill and
downhill. There's more friction because the tires of
ATVs are wide and touch more ground space. Due to
the unique threads, the tires are less slippery and
it's easier to drive an ATV on sand or any uneven
ground. They’re definitely more than "beach cars".
ATVs were first proposed in 1967. The border
between the U.S. and Canada was covered by snow and
ice during the wintertime, so special tires were
developed for vehicles to run better. After several
years, an ATV was finally introduced in 1970. There
is a handle like a motorcycle, a small engine and
four low-pressure tires on an ATV. 200 million ATVs
were sold in 18 years, which shows that ATVs has
good qualities and excellent functions. They could
run on all kinds of terrains, like beaches, rivers,
country roads, rivers, creeks and even deserts.
People cannot only drive them but also use them to
carry people or cargo. We can do so much with them
that they could be given the name as "almighty
vehicles". And they're the superstars now.
Good ATVs can run easily on all terrains: beaches,
rivers, creeks, country roads, and even deserts.
They're popular in the western countries. Now
they're introduced to Phuket and they become the
newest outdoor activity. People can not only drive
them, but also use them to carry people or cargo. We
can do so much with them that they could be given
the name as "almighty vehicles". And they're the
superstars now.
There are 6 areas in our professional ATV field:
1. The Straight Area:
It helps you to get used to the features of ATVs and
to develop your sense of driving directions.
2. The Sand Area:
You could feel what it's like to drive on the sand
here.
3. The Downhill Area:
In this area, you’ll learn how to control and
experience the speed of the vehicle.
4. The Lake Area:
It's a nice spot to enjoy the beauty of the palm
trees and the lake, and take good pictures.
5. The Sand Pit Area:
You could speed up and climb up the sand pits or the
hills. If the power of your vehicle is not enough,
the wheels are going to get stuck in the sand and
you’ll have to try again.
6. The Curve Area:
You could enjoy the excitement of driving your ATV
along the curves on the rough surface.
