I do not know how many have filled out the petition, but I would like to
urge anybody who has not to do so and please try to get others. It would be
very positive if maybe some Bike Gallery employees encouraged the big man at
TREK to fill it out. How about WestEnd bikes getting Specialized Honcho to
fill it out? River City.........ask those companies to comment. Comments
for Bike Company big bosses regarding the economic impact as well as the
livability uptick with natural surface bike access would most assuredly help
the cause for us and the future generations of riders. A few minutes of
time can make a WORLD of difference.

Please sign this This is going to be a new attempt to sway opinion in City
Hall. In 2015 we're really going to hit this hard and try to get some trails
opened up. Step one is to get overwhelming support for it. Please spread
this around your networks.
Bend people, you sign it too so we stop poaching your trails.
Northwest Trail Alliance are the ones who build trails and advocate for new
ones. Without them, things like Powell Butte, Stub Stewart, Sandy Ridge,
etc - wouldn't be what they are. We also need them to drive trail access for
the new Forest Park addition that is planned. Please join! [

The bigger the member-base the more influence it can wield. This is our
organization, not something separate to us. We can make it what we want it
to be.
Ryan
