as per title

I haven't had as chance to read it all yet but a quick skim seems pretty positive

Of what I picked up so far as mountain bikes go
Good points:
They did away with the one way road idea.
Pony express trail to stay
Recreational trail management system recommended

Points of caution:
Rezoning a portion from community use to bushland. I'm not sure what impact that will have, I need to read it closer.

Making sure any trail audit includes input from local riders to ensure Hassans maintains it's appeal of slightly rougher, more technical trails. I'm all for an easier track but Hassans has it's own character and I wouldn't want someone trying to transplant an urban pump track style trail into it at the expense of the existing trails.

anyway when I get time to read it all I'll have my say but I'd appreciate others having input too
