Hey all,
My name is Roger (Strega) and I'm the GPS Coordinator for District 37. I guess that puts me on the 'Board' but I'm not as involved as the others. I'm there to help out with all things GPS related and getting tracks together for the BLM, rides, etc. I'm not here to speak on the behalf of D37 but I wanted to pass along some information to clear any questions people may have.
Jerry Counts (the guy who did that 'trail maintenance') does NOT speak for District 37 in any way, shape, or form. Jerry used to be a ride promoter for D37 but he was dismissed a year ago for not complying with D37 protocol. Jerry still runs his own rides but they are not supported by District 37. Keith, the President of D37, is a good guy and works hard for dual-sport and doesn't condone the actions of Jerry.
Please understand that this is one man, doing these things of his own volition, on his own without support from D37.
Jerry has done a lot for dual-sport over the years, and he typically has the best interest of riders in mind, I just don't think he thought this one through before he did it.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I hope that answers some questions.
Roger that ... ... you knew that was coming ... It was nice of you to chime in. Personally I didn't think D37 condoned his actions... although I don't condone this either, moving rocks (also mentioned) is one thing, they can be moved back (usually) but chipping away at the earth... a "hole" different story! Thank you and good day!
