I know some of us like to go out behind Mt. Potasi to the Goodsprings area. I received this from Jenny @ TK. I know this is late notice, but it is happening in our own backyard.

I don't normally post here, but when we were out wheeling yesterday, Saturday, in the Goodsprings area we saw these signs taped (see below)to ALL the electric poles we past.

"Do you like wheeling here? Like using your motorcycle and quad here? Then go to this meeting! We need people to come out in numbers and have our voices heard." BLM wants to sell property in the area to private companies if there is no use being shown of the area.


Maybe you don't like politics, but WE need to stand up and make our numbers shown! I don't understand alot of politics for land use stuff, but I love to wheel, scenic or hard core, and I am willing to fight for what we have here in Nevada. We are lucky for what we have here.



Please, what I am asking is for bodies to show up to the BLM meeting on Tuesday, 5-8pm, at the Torrey Pines office.
