I used to be able to get on one of four tractors almost whenever I wanted to and go riding pretty much anywhere except the road. We had a few hundred acres of farmland so the world was my oyster.
I also had 3 dirt bikes in my life my grand dad got for me. There were paths all in the woods where we road dirt bikes.
And not a bit of that with adult supervision.
I miss those days.
