Working with land controllers positively is the only way to keep open space and trail networks thriving and accessible....
Ft Ord is a Mountain Bikers dream come true, but without constant work to keep trails open, the dream can easily become a nightmare....
Epic is a word that can describe the beauty and expansiveness of the FT Ord trail networks....
There is so much terrain just waiting to be developed into wonderful riding trails only if proper trail advocacy takes place....
Tonight I attended another important meeting regarding the future of the Ft Ord trails. Access and sustainability for continued trail use can only be attained for this epic region of riding if myself and other users step up and get involved.
Tonight was another step in the right direction to secure the future of so many fun MTB trails where cyclists can ride and enjoy the beautiful area of Ft Ord.
When the master plan for future development and usage was created over 15 years ago for the Army Base closure, cycling and Mtn Biking was not considered. Now the Ft Ord area that the Army is transferring over to different entities is a MTB riding paradise.
All this will be lost of we do not advocate proper trail use, construction of new trails, and develop a master plan for a interweaving, complex, and complete trail network.
Tonight the meeting was positive and contained most of the decision makers for the future of this area.
My work has only just begun~
