How do I stay dry on my ATV while in the rain? I have an ATV that I like to ride on in the evenings. I really love ATVs, but I am having a really irritating time staying dry. Sometimes when I'm out it will begin to rain and I really hate to ride the ATV four-wheeler in the rain because I come home soaked. I don't want to end up having to wear a raincoat every time I go out on the ATV. I was thinking that maybe, just maybe, there was some sort of ATV device that could shield the area above me from the rain, but I'm really sort-of new to this ATV riding thing.
Is there something (preferably affordable) I can do to prevent myself from getting soaked in the rain while I ride my ATV or is it inevitable?

Having an ATV usually means having to ride through the mud at some point. Most people like being out on the ATV in the rain and mud, but for some of us it just isn't that appealing. This is why a company has actually created something called the Rain Rider (from Rain Riders Industries).
You can find out how to "ride dry" on an ATV through the following website:

It appears that each Rain Rider is $299, and comes in a variety of colors and camouflaged themes such as: Mossy Oak Break-Up, Mossy Oak Shadowgrass, Realtree Hardwoods, black, and khaki.
You can purchase a Rain Rider from the Ride Dry online store:

It appears that the Rain Riders are fairly easy to put together in a hurry and are safe to drive on the ATV with. They have a fairly large plastic windshield-like area that is clear enough to see out of during rain. Also, if you happen to need to stay out in the wilderness for a night or two, the Rain Rider easily comes off the ATV in one piece and can be used as a very small zippered tent. ]
hah, im really sorry to say this... but, yeah, you'll get wet no matter what. i've never heard of anything made for an ATV, but id just get used to getting wet, plus mud lets you do all sorts of fun stuff. just be careful on them, and remember your head protection. ]
