MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Polaris Inc. (NYSE: PII), announced it is donating more than $135,000 to off-road vehicles (ORV), all-terrain vehicles (ATV), and snowmobile riding clubs and organizations across the United States and Canada as part of their TRAILS GRANTS program. For nearly two decades, Polaris' TRAILS GRANTS program has supported organizations and programs that promote safe and responsible riding, facilitate trail preservation, and help protect the environment and natural resources that are a part of the off-road trail systems.

Awarded twice annually, Polaris TRAILS GRANTS support the efforts of nonprofit organizations and local riding clubs who use the grant for trail development, maintenance projects and safety and responsible riding education initiatives.

"Local riding clubs and organizations are the backbone of the off-road community, dedicating countless hours to maintaining trails, promoting safe riding practices, and building community," said Reid Wilson, President of Off-Road Vehicles, Polaris. "These grassroots organizations bring so much energy to the sport and our TRAILS GRANTS program is one of our ways to say thank you. We're proud to help them keep the ride going."

Awarded twice annually, Polaris TRAILS GRANTS support the efforts of nonprofit organizations and local riding clubs who use the grant for trail development, maintenance projects, safety and responsible riding education initiatives, and other projects. In April, Polaris awarded 13 organizations Spring TRAILS GRANTS, making the combined donation amount for 2025 more than $255,000.

"LPFA is looking forward to getting some much-needed work done on the Yellowjacket OHV Trail. Thanks to funding from Polaris, we will be able to build sustainable creek crossings to improve trail conditions for riders, as well as protect wildlife in these sensitive riparian areas," said Addison Jerlow, program manager, Los Padres Forest Association. "This funding provides a crucial first step in managing this trail for years to come."

"We're incredibly grateful to Polaris for their generous support of avalanche safety in the motorized community in Utah. This grant helps us expand our education and awareness programs for the motorized community, one of the groups most at risk in avalanche terrain," said Kate Waller, development director, Utah Avalanche Center. "As more riders explore the backcountry, we must continue to provide accessible, relevant avalanche forecasting and safety information, as well as training."

The week before Sturgis

To raise awareness and funds that will provide essential assistance, including mobility aid and personal necessities, directly to our veterans, Marine Corps veteran and double amputee Scott Burns will undertake a remarkable challenge: he'll reside atop a 30-foot tower at the Outlets of Mississippi in Pearl, Miss. without descending for an entire week, from 10 a.m. on November 8 through noon on November 14.

"We have a deep commitment to our community and our veterans," said Kathy Hackshaw, Director of Retail at Outlets of Mississippi. "This partnership helps amplify the mission and serves as a place where we can bring awareness to the larger community, especially now at the start of the holiday season."

Founded in 2003, Seven Days for the Troops has remained steadfast in its mission to support disabled veterans and their families. The organization understands firsthand the unique challenges faced by those who have served, and it is driven by a commitment to provide assistance, resources, and a sense of community. Over the past two decades, Seven Days for the Troops has impacted countless lives through programs focused on mental health support, job training, and social reintegration.

"Our journey over the last 20 years has been both challenging and rewarding," said Burns, Founder of Seven Days for the Troops. "We have witnessed the resilience of our veterans and their families, and it has been our privilege to serve them. This event is not only a celebration of our past but also a renewed commitment to our mission and stamina."
On Saturday, November 8 at 10 a.m., Burns will be escorted to the tower by members of the Shamrock Spirit Riders Motorcycle Club.

 a few seconds later and I find this  

There is a thread for motorcycle photos and videos.  But I have been running across some really hilariously bad AI images.  So, a dedicated thread.

Here is the first.    Did any human look at this before it was posted on a website of a nationally recognized media outlet?
