    Fight Tooth and Nail

    At BRC we do work with everyone. If you think trails are forever closed once they are closed, has been proven wrong. We have worked with a group in Idaho to reopen an area that had single track on it. In Montana, trail 38 was reopened after the Forest Service closed it without following their...

    Fight Tooth and Nail

    ItsYourLegacy I am working on trying to gather some of the info that you asked. Trying to figure out and list what we have lost is a very daunting task. You have been around longer than me in this fight to keep lands open, and you might have a better list than me, and how much we have lost...

    Fight Tooth and Nail

    I can't fix the past errors of the land use group leaders. I can and will work to ensure those errors don't happen in the current and future discussions. ItsYourLegacy, you speak like I know who the gray haired folks are who locked out those that were not like minded as yourself! I don't know...

    Fight Tooth and Nail

    ItsYourLegacy I have seen the mentality that you mention previously. I own a Jeep and years ago, people did not want to share the trails, period. Where I recreate, that mentality has changed. Why? I think because so many people now own a SxS or ATV and understand both sides of the argument. As...

    OUTNUMBERED 500 to 1

    I borrowed this from a friend on Pirate4x4. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/general-4x4-discussion/2038306-outnumbered-500-1-a.html We are losing our access to public lands at an alarming rate. Why is this happening? Because our pro-access organizations are WAY under funded and their...

    Who is working to protect your Access Rights?

    I am wondering who is working to protect access to public lands for the SxS users? I can tell you that BRC is! We have Don Amador who is actively engaged in the Ca/Nv desert washes issues and been to numerous meetings. John Stewart from Cal4, and on the BOD for BRC has been to numerous...

    SxS, 4x4 and Land Use?

    I am trying to answer these posts as best as I can. I was not involved in the decision process that reduced the trails in Michigan. Having grown up in Traverse City, I remember thousands of miles of trails for everyone. Now that I lead a national organization, I am not able to answer where...

    SxS, 4x4 and Land Use?

    I am not sure that we totally forget the past, but leave it as a reminder of what has happened in the past and move on to new, greener pastures. How do we change that mentality? We all have to be involved in larger numbers than those that want to exclude us, even if they want to recreate on...

    SxS, 4x4 and Land Use?

    I don't have the history that many have of the here or in other groups of the bad blood. We need to move past that, and move into the future with goals for us all to achieve and work together to achieve those. Del already mentioned that the SXS group here is under represented, and we at BRC...
