It's kind of both. I live in a community that's just outside the city. Our community is separated from the city by about a mile and a half to two mile long stretch of road. If you look at a map of St. John's, Newfoundland, I live in an area called Shay Heights. It's very near Cape Spear, which is just outside the city. So our bylaws and stuff here are the same as theirs, but they're not enforced. You can take a quad from the driveway or a side-by-side or a dirt bike from the driveway and ride it on the road until we get to a trail or you know we can ride around the community similar to what some communities use golf carts for. People in this community use ATVs because there's a lot of forest around here, and there's a lot of trails and stuff. So it's an everyday thing to see, you know, dozens of ATVs on the road up here even though they are off-road vehicles. So I can't have a driver's license for a car, but an off-road vehicle, you don't need that. So I can operate it safely and I have for many years with no issues and people in the community know that I'm visually impaired, you know, yeah, obviously, I'm taking it easy when I'm riding on the pavement and stuff. So there's never been an issue, but the bike has been down the majority of the summer with exhaust issues and that's a difficult one because you got to sometimes take the top off the motor and, you know, mess around with some stuff. So I've been having a difficult time finding a decent price on a mechanic and I had found one, but he's been backlogged for like the last month. So I'm trying to explore other avenues to get back over to you from the 01UKZ.
