We wore them, just not all the time. We did not get hassled at all. It was over 85 and muggy the whole week we were there, so that played a big role in our decision to take them off every once in a while. Some locals told us it wasn't strictly enforced, so that also played a role in our decision. We are from Michigan, where helmets are not required if your machine has a factory roll cage and a windshield. You have to sign a waiver to buy the trail sticker for your helmet. I would always recommend wearing a helmet when on the Hatfield McCoy Trail system. It's simply safer.
yea no doubt i agree, i have an axel helmet that i normally wear but HMT rules says DOT approved helmets so i wasn't sure if we would get hassled wearing those or not @@ATVG
Definitely more comfortable as the weather cools down. In the meantime, you can wear the helmet, and break away to an outlaw trail for a while with no helmet. Try not to let the helmet law deter you from experiencing all that the Hatfield McCoy trail systems have to offer. They are a blast.
Nice
you dont have any issues getting hassled over not wearing helmets?
