The ride for Oct 25 is off. The BLM made their final decision on appeal and it was still
no. This was after we changed camp to private land and eliminated some scenic trails and
stuck to roads. They felt the use was not compatable with the Carrizo's intent. (Which
is to protect several endangered plants and animals) Even though they admitted our
impact would be minimal, they were afraid of the precident we would set for other
competitive events. (Such as motorcross races using the same roads). So anyway, it is a
nice place to ride but don't race there!
