Ride. Maintain. Repeat. A Northern Michigan community of ATV and UTV riders pushing for trail access, running charity rides, and keeping the ORV community strong.


The Mud Brothers of the North ATV Club has been bringing Northern Michigan riders together since 2011. We're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit advancing the safety and welfare of ATV and UTV recreation, and having a damn good time doing it.
We host 8 group rides per year, 2 trail maintenance cleanups, and an annual banquet. We work hand in hand with the Michigan DNR to maintain the Indian Gardens trail near Cross Village, and we're proud of every mile of it. We're also proud to support local veterans and the riding community that backs us.
Group rides, trail cleanups, the charity Mud Run, and the annual banquet. The full schedule, ride details, and registration are members only.
Log in to your Mud Brothers account to see the 8 group rides, trail cleanups, charity events, and banquet, plus register, RSVP, and get ride day details.

Show up ready to ride. Here's how a Mud Brothers group ride runs, and what we expect from every rider on the trail.
Mandatory briefing before the ride: route, weather, signals, sweep order.
Group departs on time. No late arrivals. If you need to leave early, please notify a board member.
Your machine must hold trail pace and be capable of faster speeds in open sections.
At every turn, the rider behind you must see you take it. If they can't, you wait. No one rides alone. No one gets left behind.
Federal, state, and local. ORV regulations are the floor, not the ceiling.
Other riders, landowners, wildlife, and the trail itself. We're guests on every mile.
Follow safety rules. Report unsafe riders to club officers. The trail is shared, the standard isn't optional.
Pack it out. Watch your six. No one left behind, on the trail or after the ride.
Riders not following these rules are subject to removal from the club.
We maintain and ride some of the best ORV trails in Northern Michigan. Here are our main stomping grounds.
Our main venue for season opener rides and annual charity events. Set in the rolling hills near Boyne Falls with a campground for overnight stays.
The trail we maintain. Working in partnership with the Michigan DNR, we keep the Indian Gardens trail in top shape for all ORV riders all year.
