As motorized recreation continues to grow as an important
economic contributor, QWR believes it is important for both private and public
sector researchers to detail vehicle-specific analytics to better inform
decision-makers, planners, and other stakeholders.

A recent update from NOHVCC and the Motorcycle Industry
Council (MIC) confirms that SxS recreation WAS included in the Bureau of
Economic Analysis (BEA), an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Don Amador, QWR President, states, “Today, OHV recreation
not only provides access to high quality casual use trail opportunities and
permitted events, but also provides motorized access to non-motorized
activities. I have friends and
colleagues from both the OHV and conservation communities that also utilize
SxSs for resource management, wildlife viewing, hunting, and stewardship
projects.”

“I believe outdoor recreation economic reports and
updates are a critically important tool and breaking out data about the fiscal
benefit that comes from specific vehicle types will better inform land
management agencies as they plan for current and future OHV use on designated
roads, trails, and areas,” Amador concludes.
