BLAST FROM THE PAST

arneKring — Arne Kring was part of the Swedish invasion force(Bengt Aberg, Torsten Hallman and Ake Jonsson)who helped transform American scrambles into motocross. Their domination of the Inter-Am series (along with Joel Robert and DeCoster to name a few) was the catalyst for a sport that exploded into an american passion. Our notes show this is 1971 and appears to be a California round (very likely Bay Mare).

Travel Maps are Important Management Tool

OHV recreation continues to be a highly popular outdoor activity on federal lands. A significant amount of motorized recreation occurs on weekends when many FS offices are closed. This can create an information deficit if the unit does not stock kiosks with MUVMs (Multi Vehicle Use Map).Having MVUMs available online is helpful, but QWR believes there is no substitute for having OHV map holders well stocked at sites where riders stage to unload their vehicles. As more units ramp up their trail programs and as funds become available (via appropriated recreation monies, fees for maps, grants, etc.), they may want to consider publishing a color Travel Opportunity Guide that shows the route system with additional highlights such as topographical features, campgrounds, vista points, route numbers, and trail difficulty.

Quiet Warrior Racing believes accessible travel maps helps ensure that motorized recreationists stay on designated routes, understand the rules, protect resources, and respect other users.

fools 2016 mvumbike — The 2005 Forest Service Travel Management Rule (TMR) requires that each National Forest designates roads, trails, and areas where use of motorized vehicles is authorized. TMR also requires the Forest or Ranger District to publish a Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) that identifies where those legal motorized opportunities exist.

fools 2016 mvum sign — QWR believes an important public compliance factor for “staying on the trail” is having MVUMs readily accessible at key staging areas and campgrounds.

cigMonster — The year 1976, cigarettes were a part of life. Even for a guy with a trick Maico and a need for racing.

DI6A1807 — Number 7 has always been an enigma, but this years results have been grim. James came into the SX wars looking chunky, his cornering speed has been suspect and just getting to the main proved an unachievable task. The word is that a good National Outdoor championship might pave the way for another year on his contract.
