Unfortunately the ATV Ride for Mom has been postponed to October 14th.
Level One Restrictions are still in place with no backwoods travel as the risk of fire is too high.
We look forward to a safe event on Saturday October 14.
If you are still looking to ride this weekend, please check both HERE and with the RM you are riding in.
There are many other trail systems that have fire bans and/or backcountry travel bans.
Registration is now open for the 2023 Ride for Mom!

Congratulations to all our prize winners!
The main reason we have this event is to raise awareness for Breast Cancer, and to financially support Cancer Care Manitoba. This was our 5th successful ATV Ride for Mom. We have one last thing to do before starting to prepare for next year.
Each year we want to provide the same or more funding to Cancer Care Manitoba so that we can be considered a reliable Provincial partner by providing a stream of revenue. This year we have had a generous donation from the Manitoba Metis Federation for $5,000 dollars to CCM. A big Thank you to Manitoba Metis Federation. You are a good friend of ours, and of Cancer Care Manitoba. Now it’s the ATV communities turn to match this $5,000 dollar donation. We are over half way there, with about $3,000 in personal donations, for Cancer Care Manitoba , through Eastman ATV. Please go to our website and make a donation or mail us a cheque for Cancer Care Manitoba, to fight the battle against Breast Cancer. Cancer Care Manitoba has made enormous wins and is such a wonderful help for so many families in the hardest of times. It is one of the best foundations to support!

Here is your 2022 ATV Ride for Mom day.
On Saturday June 4th, the ride will start east of Marchant MB. There will be signs on the highway and a flag man at the turn off. You will drive until we flag you or you see how the parking is flowing in front of you. Unload, pick up your registration pack, sign the consent form, and enjoy the great scenic trail. It is a gorgeous morning ride, that travels escarpment to low lands and back up to our Eastman staging area!
Lunch break will take place after about 3 hours of riding to lunch stop. “Danny’s Whole Hog” will be serving a few options for lunch. Our sponsors will have equipment on show, which will be mixed with general parking at the lunch area. This will open up the area and give us more freedom to move around.
Remember to bring some cash as:
1) vendors may have some product for sale,
2) 50/50 tickets will be for sale, and
3) Eastman ATV will have ATV Ride for Mom garments on sale.
The lunch break will also include music, and ATV talk, along with myself “talking up” our sponsors. I will have a few guest speakers again, informal but worthwhile. The ride back will be somewhat shorter, but still a good ride. We have a new version of the “Pink Picture Frame Photo”. It now includes your machine in the photo! I know it’s going to be a great experience this year and hope to see you there.
Please book before June 2, to make it easier for volunteer leaders to make their plans. The more we can plan in advance, the better the event we can deliver. We continue to learn each year on ways to improve the event for you, the rider. Please register online ASAP, as June 4th is soon approaching. We, the volunteers, appreciate it if you can register online well before the day of the event. It is a rain or shine ride, so please don’t wait to see what the weather has in store for you. Just be ready to go, everybody’s going! Plan on only bringing what you need for the morning, and afternoon. As always, this ride group has been amazing with “pack it in, pack it out”: (take out whatever you brought into the trail & area). Please be aware that on June 3, the price will increase on all registrations.
Wear Pink! “Pink your Ride” ATV Ride for Mom brings awareness and funding for Breast Cancer from Cancer Care Manitoba. Enjoy the opportunity to be flamboyant.
One small request, please; When you ask your friends to join you for The ATV Ride for Mom, please encourage them to make a pledge to Cancer Care Manitoba. Raising money for Cancer Care Manitoba, in the fight against breast cancer, will turn an enjoyable ride day into a fabulous ride day. After all, that is what this day is all about. Making a pledge is easily accomplished at the same site that you use to register for the ride. 100% of the Pledges go to Cancer Care Manitoba.
Our riding season is still looking nice, the Seddon’s Corner ride last Saturday was great, 30 machines 2 groups, it’s turning out to be a great fall riding season! Having the trails closed due to fire hazards for most of the summer was frustrating, but we were able to achieve very close to the original number of rides scheduled, a big thank you to our Ride Director and support team. We are all grateful to have 2 more rides this fall, we hope.
Contact Roland rfillion@eastmanatv.com and get your tickets for the Eastman wind up. Bring a friend, bring your family, we need to know steak or chicken for the meal. We are also putting a one time order in for hoodies, freezer jackets, hats whatever the majority want, send me your request and I can advise costs and information deidse@eastmanatv.com
The ATV Ride for Mom is a committee of Eastman ATV, ATV Ride for Mom has raised over $64,000 for Cancer Care Manitoba over the past 5 years, this is a sustainable purpose for our organization. We are organizing 2022, please consider helping out. Eastman ATV continues to look for like minded members to become active with our board or committees.
I want to stop and say ” Thank You” to our greater community, there are many people who are not current club members who do big and little things to support Eastman ATV. It’s an enjoyable experience to be a part of the great people who make this organization in and around the club. The volunteer work for Eastman ATV is very rewarding in many ways as we continue our growth.
