As we all know, riding
areas are becoming far and few between. We all lose something when a
riding area is closed, regardless if you have ever ridden there. One
closed riding area is usually followed by another and the "domino"
effect can lead right to your favorite riding area being closed. Riding
on private property without permission of the landowner is a major
topic of concern with lawmakers and legislators. Tearing up the
landscape is another aspect that many riders seem to take for
granted. Recently, one of our club members was sent to a seminar
held by the Tread Lightly Organization. We are now in the process
of learning the essentials to off-road riding and behaviors that will
hopefully keep us all riding for years to come. Check out the
Tread Lightly Organization below.
