We’ve posted before about the lack of funding for trails and infrastructure, including the Knowles Nelson fund. Well, here’s someone that’s working to bring more attention to the problem.
From our friends at the Wisconsin Bike Fed…
This October, Wisconsin cyclist Sarah Widder is riding all 44 of our State Trails, 6 non-State trails, and about 500 miles of connecting corridors. Along the way, Sarah is meeting with trail and conservation groups and blogging about her experiences on the Knowles Nelson website.
Sarah’s “Great State Trails Adventure” spotlights the precarious position of Wisconsin’s natural resource funding and encourage the next gubernatorial administration, and incoming legislators, to prioritize funding for conservation and stewardship.
The Great State Trails Adventure Ride Log includes a calendar of events that are open for the public to meet, or ride along, with Sarah as she rolls across the state.
This sounds like an amazing adventure and a very important cause!
