I am disabled now and it would make it much nicer if I could go again in the trails

We need places for not only the elderly and disabled, but for all of us who enjoy motorized recreational activities...

We need to keep open access so us older people can enjoy our public lands. Also need the sider trails as the use of S X S is growing and they ae much safer for the older generation to ride.

All Americans should have access to our wilderness areas.

I am 66 years old with COPD and a bad back. I was an avid Hiker all my life. Now the only way i can get into the mountains is with my Side x Side. It is 58 inches wide and cant fit on 50 inch trails. We need to upgrade our outdoor trail systems for the Handicap and Senior people.

Texas pulled a trick. They say we can ride on designated trail. did not provide money to mark trails. This meant no riding. There are forest sections that can be made a special use NF. Arkansas can be used as an example of how it is done. Keep me informed I will help. I am 64 and love the forest and atv riding.

The feds are in reality closing public lands to a vast majority of people by closing trails and restricting how you access these lands
