This year is shaping up to be a very bad fire season, and we as the OHV community must be conscious of this danger as we ride on public lands.<\/p>\n<p>The devastation of our natural resources, including those on the USFS and BLM areas where we ride and recreate, by a fire of this magnitude is shown at the link below (the Rim Fire was NOT started by an OHV user).\u00a0 Please take a minute to view this, and then share with as many of your friends that ride you can.<\/p>\n<p>For those of you that have been to the Stanislaus NF know what I am saying here, let along the destruction to our favorite trails and riding area. If you see somebody without a spark arrestor, get on their case.\u00a0 That person can possibly ruin the environment where we recreate and take our families.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading this, and viewing this short film. \u00a0It WILL open your eyes.
