Can I ride mtn bike to my huntinh spot on SGL?
I want to hunt about 3 miles back on SGL 135 in NEPA. There are a lot of roads back there closed to motorized vehicles. Can I ride my mtn bike back during archery season to hunt? I plan to pull a game cart behind the bike. I saw signs saying no non motorized vehicles riding on game land during hunting season. But also found these on hunters ed course saying you caught ride unless you're hunting. Confusing.

It's sad that things have become so regulated that a person has to consider the legality of riding a bicycle.

Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.

It's funny that PA DMV does not consider a motorized bike an automobile, but PA Game Commission will not allow us to use a motorized bike. PA has some really gooofy/outdated laws.
