RUMFORD ? A path between Bean Brook and Maple Street properties is now off limits to all-terrain vehicles and dirt bikes that have been ridden on it for decades.

By William Kaempffer Register Staff NEW HAVEN -- The Police Department has created a tip line for residents who are tired of dirt bikes and all-terrain vehicles illegally tearing up and down residential streets.
HELENA, Mont. - A new national limit on lead in children's products - which has toy makers scrambling for new testing methods and retailers for storage space for inventory they're not sure they can sell - also is forcing motorcycle dealers to pull dirt bikes off showroom floors. It became illegal Tuesday to sell off-road machines geared for children younger than 12 because parts in them contain lead at levels greater than 600 parts per million. Most motor vehicles have such parts.
At 110 degrees, it was one of the hottest days of the year in Colton. As I walked out of the Honda Rider Education Center's equipment room, a wave of heat hit me -- a harsh dose of reality. Wearing a long-sleeved jersey, motorcycle pants, knee, shin and elbow pads, heavy boots and a deflector, I dragged my well- armored body out to the concrete pavement. I began to perspire almost immediately - whether it was because of the intense heat or my own nerves, I wasn't sure.

TIPP CITY -- Tipp City officials want to put the brakes on riding allterrain vehicles, dirt bikes and snowmobiles on private residential property of less than five acres. The proposal was drawn up following complaints last summer from residents of the Windmere subdivision about off-road vehicles causing noise, fumes and dust. The vehicles already are prohibited on city property and in city parks. Police Chief Tom Davidson said the vehicles legally cannot be operated on city streets, though snowmobiles show up during heavy snows.
Tom McCullough grew up on the West Side of Evansville, but spent countless weekends with his family at their wooded property near Lynnville, where he and his brothers raced dirt bikes. After the property had fallen into disuse, McCullough and his wife, Pam, bought it from Tom's parents and began taking their own three boys there on weekends. "We would shoot guns, ride motorcycles, have paint ball wars, just use it as a redneck paradise," Tom joked. In 2008, he found another use for it.
