<P>>I couldn't care less about the reservoirs so long as there is a road to race on! </P>

<P>Would there not be a road to and / or around the proposed soccer fields? Things change.</P>

<P>I'm sure there were a lot of Wheelmen that complained about those confounded safety bikes!</P>

<P>Wheelmen, by the way, were responsible for many of the first paved roads in America.</P>

<P>I'm sure whoever uses the water from the reservoirs cares a lot!</P>

<P>In these days of ever fattening kids I think a little soccer or whatever gets them outside is great!</P>

If you've ever enjoyed cycling, racing, or being a spectator at Mt. Tabor in

Portland, it?s not too late to save the reservoirs, or at least ensure a

strong voice for cycling interests in the redesign of the park. Preliminary

plans for construction have the section of road that crosses the upper

reservoirs covered to become a soccer field, which will eliminate the loop

used for the Mt. Tabor series. It is not too late to have a voice-

selection process for a park architect just began last week, and the whole

project is still very much up in the air. There is plenty of time to push

for a resolution that saves cycling in the park.



Rally and March to Save the Reservoirs at Mt. Tabor

This Sunday, 9/27

Meet at Hawthorne and 41st at 12:00 Noon

March to the reservoirs and circle them at 1:00pm



Organizers are expecting a few thousand people to show, and it should be a

lively crowd.



Bring your bike and bull horn. Find your way to the upper road and make

your opinions known!



-Dave Nute
