DVD helps riders protect trails

The National Off-Highway Vehicle Conservation Council (NOHVCC) understands that it's difficult in today's economy for riders to travel to workshops to learn how to protect their rights, so the group has come up with a solution.

The group has created a Public Land Advocacy Video Workshop series available on DVD to give riders the skills they need to keep trails open in their local areas.

The series covers everything from identifying local enthusiasts and clubs, o planning a trail system, to writing effective comments on proposals, and much more.

The workshop modules were developed in cooperation with the AMA, the BlueRibbon Coalition, the Motorcycle Industry Council (MIC), the Off-Road Business Association, the Specialty Vehicle Institute of America (SVIA), and the United Four Wheel Drive Associations.

The DVD was produced with help from Yamaha Motor Corp. through its OHV Access Initiative, the MIC, SVIA and the Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association.
