This long-distance ride has also been a bucket-list item for Webb and following the one-year anniversary of his friend’s accident, he decided the time was right. In the 1980s when ATCs first made their appearance, they were popular with riders, and they also developed a reputation of being dangerous. Numerous riders flipped and crashed them in various ways with sometimes fatal results. In fact, they were essentially banned from manufacture in 1988. That history doesn’t bother Webb.
