    I pulled out right in front of you just as you were crossing I84 via HWY 95 at Palisades Jct. I was in a blue Chevy pickup. I stuck my hand out the window and waved at you behind me.

    Sadly this is short notice, but I just learned that having OHV community members attend this meeting IS a good idea (there was concern, misplaced on my part, it would not be wise to pull in riders) for the purpose of getting the Warm Spring OHV training range that was closed down last year, re-opened.

    Details:
    Monday 4/14 6pm
    Dept of Park and Rec, front conference room
    5657 Warm Springs Ave
    (location of Shakespeare Festival; note that Warm Springs is under closure at the ID-21 end, so approach instead from Eckert Road, by way of Amity Road off Federal Way; or from Park Center coming from downtown.)

    "A neighborhood meeting will be held ... to review the existing OHV training course at the IDPR property which is in the process of renewing its zoning certificate."

    I am one of those neighbors. I want it open. It was closed last year after dust complaints (avoidable, due to unmonitored use of the range after a class).

    I fully expect my neighbors to be against re-opening the range for all the thing they DON'T know about the value of this program and assumption that this is some sort of "track" which it is NOT.

    Can you show up? Do you know anyone (many ones) that can show up in support of re-opening the training range? Spread the word please.

    You Go Guys......... RIDE WHILE YOU CAN!

    Just had my hip injected this afternoon with a corticosteroid... feeling much better. I need to ride before this stuff wears off. I'll try to make the Prairie Ride.

    Sam, Rick and I were just discussing the subject of riding recklessly while we still can, glad you are feeling better :)
    Rick, still working on that report :)
    Ed, way to get out there while you still can! If Steve does show up on the 950, I'd love to see those pics:)
    Ryan, where have you been hiding? Saddle up! :)
    Jonny, go to Hemingway Butte. Take Hwy 45 south of Nampa, just after you cross the Snake river, turn south on Hwy 78 for a mile or two, right on upper Reynolds creek rd :)
    Also, Weekday Afterwork Ride next Tuesday :)
