Any places in the Roanoke- Vinton area to ride an atv?

Not aware of any legal public riding spots in that area.  You could always head up to WV and ride the Hatfield McCoy trail however.

Not legally I don't believe.  Last I read you have to have a tagged vehicle with insurance as I believe it's considered a state road.

No.  Vehicle must be registered and insured.  

The only area I know of is in Big Island (South Pedlar Trail System)

Patterson Mtn. was great...but they closed it down years ago.

There was a private trail system (private property....you paid $10 to ride for a day) somewhere South of Roanoke off of Rt.220.  

Other than that, you will have to know someone with private property, or go to WV
