It would be devastating to take away one of 2 spots in the whole state to ride OHVs legally! You can walk everywhere and anywhere!

Keep land available for the many responsible off-road riders who enjoy it. There are already plenty of walking areas, and very little riding land.

There are so few places to ride in CT. Taking away so much land from these riders is unfair and unjust.

All across the US, Americans are losing the ability to recreate in the ways they choose and pay for. There are plenty of places to walk, but only 2 in Connecticut to ride OHVs. Make the right choice.

The state is full of hiking areas, this would be a shame to lose one of the only legal riding options.

People need legal places to ride their dirt bikes, there are 100's of miles of trails to walk in Connecticut and only a few places to ride, we need more places to get out to not less

This is an actively used trail system. It seems like the proposed use conversion would effectively exclude numerous groups of current trail users. Hikers, off road motorcyclists, cyclists use the trails. Why is it necessary to eliminate all but hikers?

This is the ONLY LEGAL place in this State to operate off road vehicles. There are HUNDREDS of miles of Rails to Trails converted for recreational use for everyone to enjoy EXCEPT Off Road OHV enthusiasts. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have allowed us to co exist with them for as long as I can remember and it allows families to enjoy the land together. We NEED more places to ride, not walk!

I am a life long member of the Pathfinders MC since 1974. Thomaston dam has been part of my life for as long as I could remember. Please keep this area for dirt bike use only. Thank you.
