Buttonwoods MX (RI) vs Corrupt Town

Its bullshit, If i wasnt 10 hours away Id support. They need a big turnout to show the town how much good it is.

Yeah from what I understand parts of the town landfill are actually on his property. Something must have happened because when I talked to Jordan in the summer the relationship with the town was ok. Or at least civil. It's a fun track that's still developing. It would be a shame if it went away. Imagine citing eco violations when the town landfill is your neighbor 

I wish I could say I was surprised but as a lifelong resident of the area it is all too familiar.

That's really a shame because they have done so much work to bring in a track where there is nothing.

I hope they keep up the fight.

What a bunch of crapp!  Hope he wins this fight.

Just makes me sad. As a human species we’ve become downright impatient with anyone/anything that doesn’t align to our own personal agenda. 

I wish the best of luck to Buttonwoods MX & their moto community. 

Didn't Bernie Sanders win Rhode Island in 2016?

Seriously tyrannical town planning board. Calls owner of track a worthless piece of crap

Yeah I was going to make a thread on this but didn’t realize there was already one.

Check all this out. The town leaders are CRAZY! Poor guy. 

I don’t know anything about the meeting beyond what I saw posted online.  That said insane about of dirt bikes passing by my house and that is cool to see people having a place to ride and riders coming out to support the track.  

One of the local news stations has picked up the story.
