Here is an important OHV petition for the State of Wisconsin who struggles to gain access. Whether you are from Wisconsin, want to visit, or just want to help, please read and sign.
And email I received from Jim, something everyone should see and OF COURSE help with!!!

The answer is simply Wisconsin has yet to recognize there is any financial value in off highway recreation here in Wisconsin. Many Hunters should be told that thousands of miles of dirt roads were just recently voted restricted to motorized use. How do you drag a deer out of the woods without and ATV or truck?The fact is the state is missing out on thousands of dollars worth of revenue that could be gained as many use our woods. When a funding source is created it is designated solely for that purpose. The gas tax we use often goes for paved roads not trails you and i would love to use. The DNR and Forestry service would greatly appreciate a pool of money to help maintain the Forrest we all love to use. For me personally not being able to drive in Wisconsin's Forrest's is like living in Afghanistan and having to travel to another country to use a different beach!
Over the past several years, WOHVA (Wisconsin Off-Highway Vehicle Association) has been working to have a sticker program for 4-Wheel Drives & OHM’s introduced here in the Badger State. One of the reasons that extensive trail systems exist for ATV’s & snowmobiles is because these two groups have a source of funding via their respective registration programs.

I am asking all of my friends and family to sign this petition. It will take less than two minutes i promise! I cannot win this battle alone and need many people to stand with me united as I ask Madison for this critical legislation. One word Team comes to mind. Together Everyone Achieves More is just one simple way to remember to get involved.
Thanks in advance,
Jim "Goldy" Goeldner

thanks guys!
and for those of you who get confused by the page afterwards asking for money, just close out of it. You already signed it by that point. What that page is, is the petition host website asking for donations, but are not needed by any means just to sign the petition.
