IMBA Action Alert regarding trail development in Big Bend NP

This came to my attention from our friends at Big Bend Trails Alliance.

The National Parks Service will be performing an Environmental Assessment for the development of multi-use trail (including cycling) in Big Bend National Park. While this is only for a short (5mi) section, it may help us get a foot in the door.

IMBA has called for an Action Alert regarding this and has several suggested talking points.
