Roseville, CA - An off-road motorcycle club joined with a
local motorcycle dealer and aftermarket clothing manufacturer to help fund
efforts to promote and protect responsible OHV recreation in California and
Western Nevada. The Sierra Trail Dogs Motorcycle Club, the MPC KTM
dealership, and Klim presented a $2,000 check to the BlueRibbon Coalition (BRC)
on July 11 in
Roseville, CA.
The club's president, Rowdy Hulse, presented the donation check to Don Amador,
BRC's western representative at the KTM dealership, owned by Brad
Teegarden. "Our club strongly supports the efforts of BRC to help
keep trails open on the federal lands we like to ride on," said Hulse. "This
donation is our way of being part of solution."
"BRC has been working hard to help keep trails
open in the places where our family and friends like to ride," said Brad
Teegarden, owner of MCP KTM of Roseville. "We want to see managed OHV
recreation continue in areas such as the Pine Nuts in Nevada
and Forest Service trails in the Tahoe and Eldorado National Forests."
"I believe that industry and OHV-related businesses
must team up with local clubs and OHV organizations such as BRC in order to
protect trail-based recreation on BLM and Forest Service lands," said Klim
representative Vince Leal. "Those collective partnerships are critically
important in the fight to maintain access at federal riding areas."
"Club donations and support from local businesses are what helps keep the
doors open at BRC," said Don Amador, Western representative for the BlueRibbon
Coalition. "I am also glad the group has selected to match this donation with
Cycle Gear's Trail Fund program that does a one-to-one match up to $10,000
dollars on an annual basis."
