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?
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.
