[pct-l] Forest Service to consider allowing Mtn Bikes on the PCT

[Fred Walters]

Presumably there would be a formal consultation, inviting submissions from
all interested parties, etc., after which there would be a review, etc. (at
least that is UK type of thing).  All submissions being published and open
to public scrutiny.

Loads and loads of excellent points being made.  I thought the "question"
was not really starting until spring.  If correct, everybody needs to make
sure they don't "run out of steam" and feels just as strongly when it is
time for the formal submissions.  Not saying do nothing now but don't do
something now and think you've had your say if there is a formal procedure
later.  But I am not familiar with US procedures here - in the UK letters
received before a formal proposal has been opened to public consultation
are NOT included in that consultation.

I don't know people here but, often when something angers you you let of
steam and the strong feeling then subside over time.  And you can bet that
the mountain bikers will only be getting every stronger momentum.
