Nothing will destroy years of work like motorcycles,ripping up our trails backwards. Ramps ,ladders were never designed to handle motorized vehicles. I remember what Vedder's Luge was like (part of the old vedder mtn classic) ruts so deep ,our bars would hit . We work in Vedder with a coalition including motorcycles ,but the goal is to organize clubs so each can have their own area's. Sumas has motorcycles /Quads ripping up and down the road,cutting into the bush and just destroying area's and trails. g NO!

If I see you within the park zone with your motorbike, I will be placing a call to the police, whereupon your motorbike will be seized and you will be stuck with a hefty fine.

What takes us months to build you can destroy in seconds with your dirt bike. We've got enough work to do up there keeping our trails in good shape without you adding to the problem. Thanks.

This trail is in direct conflict of fvmba's MOU with the woodlot #45 owner. "fvmba will not build unauthorized trails without permission" Please do not ride this trail, tell the builder he is no hero,this has made the woodlot owner feel we have went against our word . (when found by the owner he claimed it was a fvmba approved trail, UNTRUE) We all want more and better trails, this is not the way to get it. GARY A Rogue trail has appeared on Sumas.

Thanks to Ryan,Paul, Steve,Kim,Trev and I. The Tom had a flu bug or he would of been here as well. We continue to clear and I redid some lines through the logging. First of two bridges framed in 53 foot long ,looking sweet. Road up is the pits and riding wise, it's starting to look like it will be May. Still snowing up high,and TK is not worth riding. Weather is lousy,so good time to come on out and help? Every sat. TK.(your invited to come out and help) We have been firing up the barbie,hot dogs,and taco chips,real health foods.... gary Lots of work got done this weekend .
