Fwd: ATVs on the Katy Trail? We need 5000 signatures on the petition this week
Route 66 Bicycles
Do you want to see ATVS on Missouri's Katy Trail? A bill to allow just that is moving through the Missouri House of Representatives.
We want to stop it, and Reid Cranmer of Summit Racing (and a member of the MoBikeFed Advisory Commission) has created a petition to oppose ATVs on the Katy Trail. 
We have arranged for Reid to present the petition to the Speaker of the House and the President of the Missouri Senate. Before we do so, we'd like to have at least 5000 signatures on the petition. We're close now--almost 3000 signatures.
Will you sign the petition opposing ATVs on the Katy Trail and help put us over the top?
Thank you!

It's not a race, but it is chip timed so you can work for your own personal best. The ride is open to everyone, from casual riders to serious races, with routes of 20, 50, 60, 75, and 100 miles. Proceeds benefit our Foundation.
