    1969 Time Magazine Article

    Here is an article from 1969 about an ATV challenge that an Attex won. My dad found this while searching the net.

    Great Find Cole! Too bad they didn't have any photos, but the article is great!

    From Article "Enthusiastic boosters of the all-terrain vehicle whimsically suggest that it could even be the answer to the nation's jammed highways. When traffic slows to a stop, the driver need merely turn his wheel, move off the road and convert his grueling commuter ride into an exciting cross-country trip." Love the Idea. Unfortunately, the Police seem less enthusiastic when you try and put this into practice.

    That's a great article. Anyone who ever met Dexter "Dutch" Shultz will remember him as one of the great characters of the sport. I was just a kid, but he impressed me enough so I still remember. I've seen the article before, but I'd have no idea where to find it- great to have a link to it! Thanks.
