ABOUT Tread Lightly!

Tread Lightly! is a non-profit organization that leads a national initiative to promote the responsible use of motorized vehicles when recreating outdoors. Our goal is to balance the off-road and off-highway vehicle (OHV) users’ need for adventure with the need to conserve the places where they ride and explore.

They offer a wide range of projects, programs, trainings, and educational materials to promote a responsible outdoor recreation message. Their work includes educating off-road and OHV users on responsible riding practices, reducing the impact on the environment and protecting natural and cultural resources.

The Impact

Each project location will have thousands of OHV participants each year using these public lands. Generations of motorized recreation users can be impacted by keeping these areas open and accessible. Working together, Overland Expo Foundation and Tread Lightly! can help spread responsible, ethical, fun motorized recreational behavior.
