“Mountain bikers want something in steep terrain, and BMXers want things that could be accommodated in neighborhood parks,” Blumenfeld said. “I think those activities will get integrated into our parks in some way.”

Action: NPS proposal includes mountain bike access
22 12 2008“The U.S. National Park Service (NPS) has proposed an important rule change that will make it easier for parks to open trails to mountain biking. IMBA urges mountain bikers to register comments in support of the new rule. We have been asking the NPS to make this change since the 1990s — we now enter a 60-day commentary period to make the change official.”
More about the legislative proposal impacts.
This is one of the most significant trail access opportunities I have seen being considered by a land organization. Please take a moment to thank them for considering mountain bikes as an equal user group in the Parks. I urge you to take action yourself and spread the word!
