this has been a long process, as the closure was implemented May 2008.
Today I heard on NPR the Sam Farr bill for Pinnacles had been approved in both houses and was on the President's desk for approval. When we met with Farr, this bill included Clear Creek being managed as a National Recreation Area, with the trail designations as they were in April 2008. That is about 250 miles of trails. Pretty awesome riding.
What you can do now:
This is real opportunity to be heard, and frankly, to teach our brethren to engage their representatives on their behalf. Motorcyclists are often silent until it is too late. Congress, the senates and the assembly need to know we are a significant constituency.
Can each of send a note to a two national Senators, a congressperson, an assemblyperson and a state senator? Can each of us ask all the fellow dirtbikers we know to do the same?
And, go to the Pinnacles website and comment by Jan 11:
