As mentioned by a few others, the Moose Mountain Bike Trail Society has made incredible progress since it's inception two years ago, The passion of the original builders/riders who began building a decade ago has only grown and been past on to those of us who haven't been around since the beginning. The pursuit of a legal trail system has solidified and grown the local mountain biking in a way I don't believe anyone would have expected when the idea was born. The efforts of the MMBTS to date have given the society a positive reputation with the government unmatched by other user groups. This reputation has already payed dividends as two new trails have been approved and the five year plan has been submitted to the government with positive feedback. These fantastic results clearly indicate that legal trails are possible when the local riding community bands together and puts the wide variety of skill sets to use to achieving a common goal. Not only has the MMBTS worked with the "system" that so many complain about, the MMBTS has managed to produce professional trail proposals which the government intends to use as the standard template for other user groups' trail proposals. All of these results speak for themselves; getting organized, building a community of passionate riders and builders with a variety of skill sets and moving toward a common goal leaves the future of mountain biking in the hands of the riding community. We are a legitimate user group who deserves every right and privelege of other recreational user groups in our quest to build our local riding communities while promoting the sport of mountain biking and so long as we continue to respect the concerns of other stakeholders, the land we are using, and the trails we ride, the future of this sport lies somewhere out beyond what we can even imagine.
