ATTENTION Michigan Trail Riders….

If you have not written to Senator Garcia to express your opposition to Senate Bill 110, “Increase Forest Trail to 57 Inches”, aka “The Argo Bill”, please take the time and do it now. We will be meeting with him next week to discuss this bill, and a flurry of opposition letters prior to that meeting will help the cause.

Even if you do not have much interest in single track trails, it is estimated by the Michigan DNR that this legislation may cost upwards of $5.4 million to implement. Is this how you want YOUR trail money spent?
