I had the privilige to testify infront of Parks and Wildlife Commissioners to support the Recreational Trails Program, and say thank you for opening the roads in Big Bend Ranch State Park to dual sport motorcycles. I recommended that the agency study other opportunities in Texas to ride on exisiting roads with street legal dual sports.
The Program is doing well, since it was saved from being cut by the Legislature last Session, and this time they are proposing to give all the OHV sticker income back to the program. Thanks to everyone, because raising the OHV sticker fee saved the program, and now its looking like those $$ will come back to benefit riders around the state! Parks and Wildlife want stakeholders involved in the discussions on use of the program funding, so be involved! They are intersested in innovative uses of this funding, you have to be a local government or 501(c)(3) to qualify and submit a grant proposal.
The Parks and Wildlife will have additional funding to give out to help build riding opportunities in Texas!
Big thanks to Parks and Wildlife, esp Phillip Barret at BBRSP and Steve Thompson for their support of dual sport riding! Big Bend Ranch is the gem of state parks, and thanks to all the riders for helping build a positive relationship with the Parks and Wildlife.
