Open letter to all MTB'ers

Westgate Park- We are extremely fortunate to be able to utilise such a
fantastic venue such as Westgate Park for our Kona Dirt Crits, however it
requires the co-operation of everyone involved; be it on Thursday night at
the event or at any other time you may be riding down at the park. It is
vital that you remain on the multi-user trails that we have been granted
permission to ride. The multi-user trails are awesome and there is no need
to use other areas of the park for MTB'ing. Failure to stick to the
permitted multi-user trails by anyone will result in the permit being
revoked. It's in your hands. There are other users of the park and we need
to be mindful of them and their enjoyment of Westgate Park. Thanks!

Does that mean that riding the Thursday night course at any other time
is out?
I can understand that near the carpark the single track comes onto the
pathway from a decline without much warning & then travels a short
distance on manicured grass (which wears a groove in time), but taken
with some caution I thought it was OK?

The track out the rear of the park travels through quite a bit of
disused paddock area which doesn’t look like it used for anything else
at all.

In total agreement with you there! Friends of mine have been involved
with the long term development with Westgate Park, refer to a recent
segment of George Negus Tonight.

I can fully understand people wanting to ride the tracks in the park,
but please keep it nice. Aggro and disrespect will close access to
these great MTB tracks so close to the CBD.

Put it simply, no rights without responsibilities, no responsibilities
without rights.

Riding the course at any other time is OK! Just ensure that the course
is the only tracks you ride on. It appears that some people have taken
a bit of licence with riding anywhere they like.
If your in doubt, please check out the course on a Thursday night and
ride around whilst it's all marked out.
