Regardless of whether or not these trails are "legally public" in the strictest sense, these are trails that the general public has access to, like it or not. Anything we can do to coordinate efforts to minimize impact to these places is a good thing, no?

The meeting is going to come out like this:
1) We need to stop using the same places so much, and corral "un-sanctioned" club runs at these places.
2) We need to work together to open more trails and push our agenda through to the state governments.
There's your meeting.

Actually, skip step #2. And add some more content to step #1.
Although I don't understand it (nor care to at this point), I'm well aware of the residual animosity between the Ass'es. I also understand the loyalties and the need for autonomy. There's nothing grandiose going on during this, I hope, annual (at least) meeting, just trying to clear the air and help our existing trail network. The rest can wait for now.

OK...serious now.....I think we should discuss a couple of things in regards to #2, at least so we are on the same page and can support each others intiatives.

The date works for me, the time will depend on the location. I'll look on a map and try to find a 1/2 way point.
November is booked, but I'm free December 1st/2nd and the 15th/16th. Name the place (I'm about 2 hours from Adams, MA - google Glens Falls, NY )

That's just rhetoric and you know it as well as I do.
You think the two associations getting together would have stopped any of that?
Some people work better when they are not in the same room together.
Heck, just look at me and Dan Stra.We work great together now!

It's been a dogs age since I been to the bar there, but last I recall you could fit 30 in there no problem.
