I'll put it this way plain and simple.....we're being asked to watch our mouths concerning what the "antis" might hear....yet God forbid we ever question our own national or local leaders as to why participation at quarterly meetings concerning the single largest trail system in this country draws one cyclist, an atver and a few full-size guys.
Specifics?
How about a "22,000 strong" representative group that refuses to divulge who exactlty sits on their all-powerful council or even incredibly more...just how they are representing all of us?
Again, what I'm saying here is that every national orv group out there preaches the exact opposite of what's happened here in Michigan and has been made aware of the facts MANY TIMES surrounding same.
Instead of coming down on their 'buddies' and shaming them into acting like men instead of arrogant arses...they've chosen to try and slay the characterand reputation of folks like myself who don't see this kind of nonsense promoting any kind of future participation by our youth whatsoever.(what kid wants to be treated like scum when he goes to the state capital to speak his mind.....only to be rudely run out of the meeting before his alloted time is up?).
These guys on the national level are just plain gutless...and they know it.
