Study Shows Off-Roading Can Improve Blood Pressure

Looking for a good excuse for some outdoor adventure? A clinical study published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology found that regularly riding motorized off-road vehicles, like ATV's and dirt bikes, can improve health-related fitness, improve quality of life, and even reduce blood pressure. It goes without saying that for speed-crazed gearheads, tearing around the countryside like a banshee is fun. But who knew that it could also be so...well...healthy? As for me, I think a new ATV is just what the doctor ordered. Happy trails, everyone!
