The Last Carnegie Ride?

Kyle and I went riding at Carnegie (near Livermore,CA) this morning for what may be the last time... I certainly hope not, but they plan to close it, I think, next week, for what might be a permanent closure.

They had most of Corral Hollow Creek closed off (this is the area close to the rode and near the entrance to the park). But, otherwise with the fog keeping the ground a touch wet the traction was great, and the temperature was about 50 degrees. So, the conditions were near perfect. I sure hope they don't close this park for good: So many families have had great times there.

I've always felt that the dirt biking community is a small community, full of hard working folks who can barely speak up for themselves and are often picked on by larger communities like environmentalists. Don't get me wrong I'm more green than many but environmentalists have so many bigger fish to fry. Unfortunately, they have trouble battlign the big boys like gas companies and automobile makers. So, it's just easy to get a few wins against the little guy.
