MTB Alert: Bitterroot Travel Management Comments Due on Nov 9th
I don’t normally post up news type articles, but a good friend of mine (and owner of Red Barn Bicycles) shot me over an email yesterday that deserves attention. This will affect trail and land use decisions in a negative light for mountain bikers.
From Chad:
Robb…..this is an important IMBA alert that could potentially spread nation wide. Basically it effects our Recommended Wilderness areas and the new management is to treat these areas as IF they really are wilderness. Something Congress should only have the power to do. But now they’re planning to empower someone in the Forest Service to create defacto wilderness…..and the wilderness advocates are loving it as it could set a national precedent.
Bitterroot Comment Period Extended to November 9th.
The most important and immediate action that EVERYONE OF YOU can do today is to comment of the Bitterroot Travel Management Plan before the November 9th deadline. Please see our Bitterroot Comment Suggestions page for more details. No matter where you live it is vital that you weigh in on this particular TMP as bad bicycle policy is spreading and your backyard could be next! May guilt, poison oak and pinch flats plague you for eternity if you do not comment! Apathy Sucks. Don’t depend on others to carry your load. This is APATHY FOR THE BITTERROOT! Please take 15 minutes to write your letter for future mountain biking opportunities on your public lands. The Forest Service needs to hear from the cycling community no mater where you live.
If you have already submitted your comments – THANK YOU!

I posted a link to this on the SORBA forums. Organizations wanting to keep people out of wilderness areas is like that living room some people have. You know, the one nobody is allowed to step foot in and has plastic on the furniture.
