[quote LOAH]What I find even more offensive is that they're closing a public highway (made for cars) for a bike race?
I though their big thing was "Share The Road".
Now that's ridiculous!
When they pay registration/insurance/licensing fess to ride their bikes on our highways, then they can demand special rights. Until then, use the shoulder or the sidewalk! quote]
I don't know anything regarding this bike race. But just an FYI, some of the roads around and up to Pineview from Ogden will also be closed in the morning and early afternoon on May 19th for the Ogden marathon. There are other ways to access Pineview, which you can get a better idea of by looking at the race map [url "http://www.getoutandlive.org/pdfs/Marathon%20Map%202011.pdf"]http://www.getoutandlive.org/pdfs/Marathon%20Map%202011.pdf[/url] .
So for those planning to fish Pineview on Saturday the 19th, driving up from Ogden may not be possible. And trying to get there early also probably wont work as the race starts at 7am and the buses start transporting runners at 5am.
