Yippee! Another Park Bans Bikes!
It's also nice to know that land managers don't consider bikes
"natural" when they are used off-road.... Mike Date: Sun, 14 Jan 2007 18:16:49 -0000 Subject: Good Bye St. Eds, it was nice while it lasted. A quote from William C. Leak; Kudos to c4sep, public comment 01/12/07, and public emails and letters. (bias *******) By Peyton Whitely * Seattle Times East Side bureau; "After hearing 15 speakers, the seven-member state park and recreation commission unanimously decided Friday to designate as `natural' one of the last remaining swaths of forest along lake Washington" (should have been at least 6 to 1, not sure what happened) So… it looks like there will be no new trail for us at St. Eds that heads down to the lake and the door has been slammed shut and locked forever. What I am still very concerned about (I seem to be the only one) is that the whole park AND the adjoining county park known as big finn hill will be designated `natural' We all heard them say that they want to combine the two parks and reclassify the whole thing at the public meeting we all attended. Prepare your selves to wave bubye to good old finn hill folks. === I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to humans ("pure habitat"). Want to help? (I spent the previous 8 years fighting auto dependence and road construction.) Please don't put a cell phone next to any part of your body that you are fond of! http://home.pacbell.net/mjvande |

In article ,
says... It's also nice to know that land managers don't consider bikes "natural" when they are used off-road.... Shockingly, Mike Vandespam got it wrong again! The "natural" designation includes a Resource Recreation corridor for a new trail through the Holmes Pt. ravine and continues to allow orienteering in the western half of the park. So the park banned bikes to the extent that specifically allowing construction of a new cycling trail constitutes a ban. -- is Joshua Putnam http://www.phred.org/~josh/ Braze your own bicycle frames.
