4. Gear up

It goes without saying that you should have the proper gear for racing. This includes helmet, boots, gloves, goggles, long pants, and chest protector. And just as you have the proper gear, so should your ATV. Proper gear for your ATV generally include tools that will keep you safe while riding the trails such as tether cord, nerf bars, race number on the front and rear on your ATV, and others.
