I took the survey and said no e-bikes anywhere.  I think allowing them will be the end of hunting within 20 years.

Regardless of e-bikes, the antis will be the end of hunting in 20 years unless we do something about our governor candidates.

Seems pretty simple. Its got a motor so if a motorized vehicle is approved for use then ebikes should also be allowed. Non motorized means just that...NON motorized. No reason to over complicate things.

 :yeah: too clever by half to call them non motorized. I get the incentive to do so by the people who have found a loophole to easier access but that doesn't make it right or even logical.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

:yeah:  I am all for ebikes on motorized trails and am all for them paying for ORV tabs to help maintain those trails.  I am 100% against motorized ebikes on non motorized trails for a ton of reasons.  With that said if they do legalize a motorized ebike on a non motorized trail I will probably get one and use it.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Well, I’m going with Genderfluid, so my response will be counted.  Yours will most likely go in the round file.

Make it a lot simpler for antis and other quacks to get into areas and disrupt hunting while appearing to be involved in an otherwise innocuous activity.  May even lead to firearms ban areas because of multiple user groups deciding they are all about easier access to enjoy non hunting activities in the fall.

Dont say not gonna happen, did anyone ever see us getting to where we are now? And being asked questions like #14 ?

Don't have an ebike. But have motorcycles, and don't mind paying orv for trail maintenance.
However I sure see a lot of horse and hiking trails that look like fun and good hunting access. Who pays for the trail maintenance on those trails?
Is there some sort of horse or hike permits out there?    :dunno:
