Personally, I think the fact that this person is talking about doing this
demonstration ride purely because "it seems there's nothing happening" to
allow mountain biking to expand in FP. Poster even went so far as to say
the Forest Park section of pumpclub.org hadn't been updated "since 1986"
(obviously being sarcastic but the point was made).

I think this underscores one important fact more than anything... There is a
lack of local mountain biking advocacy communication happening. People
aren't sure how to get involved, what the important topics/projects are, and
there's serious lack of unified voice. Just saying... this is one of
those cases that points to a larger issue which has a solution if certain
steps are taken instead of attempting to continuing doing what doesn't work.
