The interconnected trail network allows riders to access remote areas more easily, in addition to sustain other outdoor activities such as hunting and fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If ATVing attracts new visitors each year, it also strengthens the customer base and galvanizes an existing network. It makes no doubt for the FQCQ: the quad industry is still expending and it is adamant to pursue and maintain development activities. &nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"color:#ddd\" class=\"wp-block-atomic-blocks-ab-spacer ab-block-spacer ab-divider-dotted ab-spacer-divider ab-divider-size-1\"><hr style=\"height:90px\"\/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2>The Market<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<table class=\"wp-block-table has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Year\n\t\t\t<\/th><th>Registered vehicles on December 31s<\/th><th>Members on October 31st<\/th><th>KM of trails<\/th><th>Member clubs on April 30th<\/th><th>New ATVs sold in Qu\u00e9bec<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>2003<\/td><td>276 576<\/td><td>51 108<\/td><td>17 159<\/td><td>140<\/td><td>28 605<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2002<\/td><td>257 993<\/td><td>43 867<\/td><td>16 436<\/td><td>130<\/td><td>37 303<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2001<\/td><td>238 151<\/td><td>33 658<\/td><td>15 046<\/td><td>121<\/td><td>23 415<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2000<\/td><td>222 596<\/td><td>31 711<\/td><td>11 334<\/td><td>109<\/td><td>21 816<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1999<\/td><td>191 311<\/td><td>23 517<\/td><td>8 906<\/td><td>100<\/td><td>17 807<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1998<\/td><td>175 026<\/td><td>16 644<\/td><td>N\/D<\/td><td>95<\/td><td>11 117<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1997<\/td><td>162 892<\/td><td>12 500<\/td><td>N\/D<\/td><td>77<\/td><td>10 548<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1996<\/td><td>156 194<\/td><td>11 000<\/td><td>8 227<\/td><td>72<\/td><td>8 663<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1995<\/td><td>147 647<\/td><td>9000<\/td><td><\/td><td>60<\/td><td>9 238<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1994<\/td><td>138 172<\/td><td>N\/D<\/td><td><\/td><td>53<\/td><td>9 812<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1993<\/td><td>128 901<\/td><td>N\/D<\/td><td><\/td><td>51<\/td><td>11 429<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the past 25 years, the Qu\u00e9bec off-road vehicle industry has skyrocketed.
