Everybody needs to check out www.glamisonline.org and see that up to 70% of the dunes may be closed very soon to protect a weed. We need to wake up and protect our riding area’s ride the tails and sand not the plants they make for poor traction. We need to keep all our riding areas clean. We need too leave with more trash and do not leave any behind.

It appears the "sand" riders are now under attack. Welcome to the club, we the riders off forrest land have been fighting these battles for a long time.

You have to educate the public, otherwise your riding area's will be closed.

It doesnt seem to matter where we ride someone is always trying to stop us. So far in the midwest we havent had alot of trouble with this as far as I know but I'm sure it will get here eventually.

I'm starting to think we are living in a communist country. They just havent told us all the rules yet.

As for you people who ride at Glamis just remember, THEY CAN'T TICKET WHAT THEY CAN'T CATCH!!!

Yep, that's exactly what my US Government teacher in college said, He was always saying that all the people in the revolutionary war fought for OUR freedom and died for it but the we keep voting in people who want to take it away. The college fired him the next year because he was not a liberal.

just you wait, If gore gets elected we'll be lucky to have recreational vehicles at all. Its up to people like us to stand up for our rights, Remember this, We hired the government and they work for us, but if you sit on your butt they will take full advantage of that, and do what they think is right for you. I'm going to call my local congress man and ask him about the Glamis situation. I urge you to do the same.

If Bore, uh, Gore gets elected, you better have a big yard, because thats the only place you will be able to ride! Well, until your neighbor complains

I recently rode alongside a paved bicycle trail near Moose Lake, Minnesota. You know... because it was paved and ATVs were not allowed on it.

Well let me tell you, the ditch along side the trail was filled with more "designer water" bottle litter than you could shake a stick at. Evian, Pierrie,Clearly, etc. You name it, and it was there alongside the trail.

The tree huggers were littering their own trail with plastic of all things. (which lasts darn near forever) Go figure.
