Regarding the current message regarding the runners who were running on RIP on the 18th. I was hoping to keep you up on what sort of thinking was taking place. I sent out the plethora of e-mails you sent me on I think it was Friday or Saturday. I emailed as many as I could think of to attempt to bring everyone up to date.

There are hard feelings because what everyone sees is the fence, the demise of the best trail there, the removal of , at least this is what they say I don’t know because I haven’t been down there, all the bridges and then someone says it is extending into RIP.

Once again I wouldn’t know because originally it was supposed to be only Skyline. Those are just hard feelings coming from people who can’t exercise there like they used to. As soon as we can start making the tiniest progress towards gaining access then there will be something concrete for all to see. Right now they aren’t sure of the future.

I am sure if we can successfully get an amendment on the CE and begin the real work of getting the trails that are left open hope will be inspired all around. Meanwhile we the majority of mtn bikers are respecting the wishes of cnlm.

If I get any further messages that you could use to keep up on the dialogue I will forward them.

Also if you are speaking with the airport or the county or the city it would be fantastic to get those communications. Especially if they are similar to the last ones that help us understand the complexity of how these things work and why it takes so long to do something.

So everyone out there we are going to have to bring it down a notch on the rhetoric. If you go to the communiqué sent by Markus you will see he wants a meeting the 2nd week of December. We should come away with a clearer understanding of were we are and were we are going.
