Re: [RC] re: ATV use in forest - Barbara McCrary

......and one I agree with. I'm not all that fond of cycles on horse trails, either, but if we don't all hang together, we're all going to hang separately. Make an effort to work it out with the cyclists. Otherwise we may have no trails at all.

This isn't going to be a popular stand with some of you, BUT, I caution
you to be very careful about attacking other multiple user groups.  My
experience is that once agencies start banning activities, horses are next
on the list right after ATV, motorcycles, etc.  Then, there's NO ONE left
to fight for us because 90% of hikers hate horses on trails.  However, for
those of us who cooperate with other user groups these same folks will
come to bat for us and work out cooperative deals with us to share trails.
One other thought is that many of us use motorcycles and ATVs to mark
trails.  We don't appreciate you taking that away from us.  Just another
point of view.  Cindy
