Quad biking in Transcarpathia
Quad bikes are four-wheeled motorcycles that, in their adaptability, easy manoeuvrability, off-road ability and simplicity of handling, will give any off-roader a run for its money. They have a relatively "young" history, having become popular a mere 50 years ago. It was then that the company known today as "Honda" created the first quad-bike prototype, which had three wheels and was used in agriculture. But within some ten years the machine was improved by adding one more wheel - and so the modern quad bike appeared.
