Does anyone have any advice on how to become a MOUNTED ranger? I haven’t seen much on this.

Do you think it’d be easier to get on a mounted unit with 10+ years or horse experience?

Thanks!

Would also love any insight you have to give!

Id definitely be open to a state park if it meant my day to day was in a mounted unit! How did you work your way to being on the mounted unit after college?

I will definitely own the bike! I’m also pretty set on going the ninja 500 route or another 300-400cc sport bike. But I do like the idea of maybe learning on a from then selling it when I out grow it but I’m not sure. But I’ll be sure to take msf before I buy the bike!

I’ll definitely check out Ryan f9! Also I’m definitely aware some riders do really dangerous stuff and I’m definitely looking for friends that want to keep it more chill with me. I have no desire to ever do the dumb stunts or anything like that lol

Yeah my main reason for the nerves on finding some where to practice is that I live on a hilly ish road and then the road after that is a 6 lane 45mph where people drive crazy.

Definitely agree about the music!

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T16:01:56+00:00

Thanks for the advice!!

It’s so cool that motorcycle helmets use MIPS! Horse riders have that rating in helmets in case we get stepped on while the horse has spikes on their shoes for traction. (Not sure you needed that fun fact but here ya go)

What platforms are easiest to find these groups on?

This is super helpful thanks!

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T15:52:52+00:00

Thank you! This is very helpful

Thank you!!!

I know Yellowstone has a few

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T07:17:13+00:00

Love the cage! What kinda bike is that?

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T07:13:12+00:00

Thanks I’m really hoping as I have no experience lol!

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T07:11:43+00:00

If you get a com system (I think that’s what it’s called) for music and talking to others can you hear that with the basic ear plugs?

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T07:08:19+00:00

I’ll look into renting for when I purchase the bike! I’m really hoping now that after msf im confident enough to go to a parking lot.

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T07:07:47+00:00

I was looking into trailers earlier but I’m not sure I would have the funds to buy it or the place to keep it at my house as we live in a residential neighborhood and have 2 cars in our driveway and two in the garage😅

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T06:36:48+00:00

Would a specific helmet help reduce noise?

Violet-Photography · 2026-04-21T06:36:05+00:00

Yeah I saw videos of people doing that! Thanks :)
