Pat McArdle

Pat grew up in the midwest and wasn’t introduced to the dunes until 2013, at which point he was hooked even though it was mid-August and well over 110 degrees outside! His love of riding stems from many different styles of powersports including ATV’s, snowmobiles, motorcycles, and his current favorite, any RZR he can get his hands on! Although he would love to spend more time in the dunes each year, he generally makes it down to Glamis for Camp RZR and possibly one other trip throughout the season.

Pat has spent the past 14 years in various roles at Polaris. He started out as an engineer and has held roles in engineering, manufacturing, sales, service, and currently leads the product planning team for RZR. He brings a wealth of industry experience across a variety of geographies and terrains, but his favorite riding is definitely in the dunes!

Pat strives to help keep new riders informed about dune safety and loves to help them experience their first ride out to the hill! He brings both business acumen as well as an OEM perspective to the ASA.
