Mr. Bill Horn County Supervisor; District 5 County of San Diego 1600 Pacific Highway, Room 335 San Diego, CA 92101 Dear Mr. Horn: Please put a stop to the scheduled destruction and removal of the existing trail network known to many as Flightline. Flightline is an invaluable recreational asset to myself and the many active citizens of San Diego County. I, as a concerned citizen of San Diego County, wish to have a public hearing regarding this small land node which has been set aside as permanent open space. More specifically, I would like the conservation easement which governs applicable land uses on county preserves to be amended to allow recreational access, which includes cycling. Further, I and the recreational community of San Diego County would appreciate the opportunity to work with the County of San Diego and its designated land managers towards a mutually agreeable solution. Once again, I urge you to please direct the Center for Natural Lands Management (CNLM) to cease all plans to remove the existing trail network until such a time as the citizenry of San Diego County is afforded an opportunity to be heard. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. Respectfully, YOUR NAME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

DON'T FORGET TO PUT YOUR NAME and TODAYS DATE IN THE EMAIL!

PRINT and DISTRIBUTE FLYERS!

We don't have much time until a demolition crew is scheduled to come through and take out the heart of the Flightline trails. Demolition is scheduled to start in November. We need help and we need it NOW! Work us into your daily routine. If you stop by a coffee shop on the way to work, post up one of our flyers. Got a myspace account, post a bulliten on your page. Be the change you wish to see. Print out flyers and post them up at work, at coffee shops, at your local bike shop, at the gym.

We put up the online petition last Thursday to help centralize our voice. The petition include everyones name, age and address. With these three pieces of personal information, we have a better chance of making our vote count now and through the elections.

Flightline Petition

The online petition to Save FlightLine is working brilliantly! In under ten days we have gathered over 900 signatures! It is apparent that with the power of the Internet we can gather thousands of signatures in hopes of saving these great trails.

The perfect solution for everyone is to keep the flightline trails intact so we can continue enjoy riding/hiking/training on them like we have been doing for the past two decades while limiting the liability the city faces for us being there.

In order to accomplish these goals, we need to do a few things. First, we need to communicate with each other and assign tasks. You can follow the progress of our fight and learn how to help over here.

We also need to go through the propper channels. As difficult as it is for all of us that have been riding the trails for the past twenty years, there is a new sheriff in town and we need to play ball or we won't ever get to ride FlightLine again.
