Access, access and more access... PLEASE!!!

By walker on 3/9/2007 on walker's blog

Here, we go again! You know I'm not going to let up on the trail access issue. As many times as I can, I'll scream how important it is to make your voice heard: NOW JOIN IMBA!

In this post, I'd like to highlight the recent attempt by Poison Oak Productions to force the trail access issue in Marin County, California. WHAT? Marin County, home of mountain biking, has trail access issues? How can this be?

The fact remains that even the birthplace of mountain biking has issues. It isn't just hikers vs. bikers; it is the inclusion of a way of life. It is the "fight over paradise". If you haven't checked out the trailer, be sure to watch it here: http://www.poisonoakproductions.com/. You won't regret it!

Now, the next question is should YOU stand up and highlight your trail issue(s)? Should you make your voice heard through the airwaves? If yes, what does it mean to stand up? Is it a video, podcast or comment on this blog? If no, WHY NOT!

Trail issues impact us all, post a comment here and let us know what issues you are facing...
