Colorado, USA: Douglas County Colorado is in the rapid process of attempting to pass new rules and regulations on Motorsport Activities on private land.
If passed, this will ultimately ban any form of track use and will have several limitations on motorcycles, atv and snowmobile use on private land. Different than proposed bans on Public Lands that we continuously battle around the Country, this attempt directly attacks individual land owners and our rights.
If successful, the proposed ban could set a dangerous new benchmark for other Cities, Counties and other Jurisdictions throughout the State of Colorado and beyond. We must be heard to prevent this terrible act of diminishing land owner rights in America!

Anyone have the actual guidelines this would affect? Ie certain acreages?
If passed, down the road this could affect people like Tomac.
The Shop
Luxon 4-Post Bar Mounts
$189.95 - $239.95
DeCal Works Huge Plastic Inventory of UFO and Polisport kits.
Can I assume this was also sent to the AMA and the OEM's?
Seems they would want to get involved.
Yes, the AMA has been contacted to seek their help as well.
Absolutely this could ultimately effect someone like Tomac down the road. This could set a new standard for other Counties, etc.
Other details of this resolution include garbage like dictating how much dirt you can even move on your land! Limits of only 2 ATV's, etc.
It's a slippery slope to say the least. And to make the challenge even more difficult, this appears to be lead by a government official who owns large quantity acreage in the County. The entire resolution was drafted in a mere two weeks! Really? When was the last time you saw a government entity get ANYTHING done in two weeks?!
Thank you again for your support!
