Hi Ladies

i can't stress enough to submit comments to this plan. In Canada, there are PLENTY of problems with mtb access. Hikes and bikers need to find a way to share land. In Ottawa, there is a risk of losing our access completely because of "rogue" mtb who go into hiker only trails. Not only that, when mtb DON'T respond to plans two things might happen: no trails for mtb because the government just assumes people aren't interested OR the government comes up with THEIR version of a trail, which in this area is a gravel road. (YUCK.) So PLEASE take the time and write up some comments. I always hear people complain about how long it takes, it doesn't take long at all. Read through part of the plan and think how it might affect you.
