PUMP members. This rider testified before the Board of Forestry in Salem
yesterday on behalf of PUMP.
I did not think I would be put on the agenda for public comments due to the huge
number of requests to testify yesterday from big timber and other organizations.
But the gatekeeper at the front door said, "Your Wayne Naillon, I have seen your
name everywhere for the last 9 years, you will get to speak".
I put in writing the ideas of Ryan Kilgren, Fred McGregor, and myself (Team
Tilly or Tillamook Forest reps);on one page of paper and attatched it to the
grant written by Randy Peterson from the Oregon Dept of Forestry. This was
given to all the Board members and the NorthWest Area Director =Mike Boredelon.
They got this before my testimony.
The grant was given to ODF to hire a professional trail builder for a section of
trail from Elk Creek TH going towards the summit. This will be a new segment of
the Wilson River Trail. ODF took back the monies dedicated for the "match" part
to the grant since the grant was written. Therefore, Randy Peterson from ODF has
been afraid that the project would be cancelled. Ryan and I just feel strongly
that this is just not acceptable. Ryan had the brillant idea of using South Fork
inmate trail time and volunteer trail constructors time for the match part of
the grant. This idea was verbalized by me to the Board and ODF on behalf of
Team Tilly and PUMP.
The new Board Chair is a cyclist, head of the World Forestry Ctr, and the
President of Cycle Oregon. His name is Larry Blackwell. He interupted my
presentation and said " Give Randy Peterson my name and number and I will use
Cycle O Community Funds for the match monies". The North West Area Director of
the Oregon Department of Forestry also joined me at the public comment
microphone half way through my plea. Mike Bordelon said he would also help us
fulfill this grant. Mike is charge of the Tillamook and Clatsop State Forests
which represent about 80% of all the state forest lands. It was an
overwhelmingly positive response to PUMP's advocacy to continue building the WRT
towards Mtn Bike Area I, the Storey Burn Trail. This will connect all the
trails at the summit of Highway 6 to the WRT trail. Connecting what will be an
extensive network of trails. ODF and the Board are supporting our request
despite a mandate to cut ODF's budget.
The trail never ends....

Despite what others from outside the organization think, this is one
EXCELLENT example of the fine
ADVOCACY work we, as a group, have accomplished, on behalf of MTB'ers
region wide.
If it wasn't for efforts in this area, and Powell Butte, Mollala, LL Stub
Stewart State Park, the Mt. Hood area, SW Washington,
Hood River, Syncline, etc. etc., we'd not have as many excellent riding
opportunities as we do today.
Fine work, young man! Your advocacy efforts over the last NINE years are
certainly appreciated!

Wow! Once again I am impressed with your (& Team Tilly) volunteer efforts,
hard work, and advocacy efforts.
Wayne, your success was enhanced by your preparation and constant efforts
over time. Way to go!
Once again, PUMP is not JUST a social club…PUMP gets things done!
