[pct-l] Forest Service rejects efforts to rescind or restrict ban on mountain bikes on PCT!

[Ernie Castillo]

Suggestions: 

Have the PCTA create a position paper and post in on the web site in clear view for all -- and not just hikers -- to understand the issues.
Draft a "form" letter similar to that on the "share the PCT" Facebook page and encourage everybody on this list serve to send copies to their congressmen.
Refrain from calling the MTBers names such as clowns and losers
