Times-Advocate, 1981-07-08, Page 14Page 2A Times -Advocate, July e, 1981 No changes at Pinery Motorcycles still banned It is highly unlikely that motorcycles will be admitted into Pinery Park this year. Despite a strong lobby of bikers who are asking the Ministry of Natural Resources to do away with the 10 year old motorcycle ban, no changes will be made in the near future. Pinery spokesman Terry Crabe explained that Pinery's motorcycle ban is entrenched in the provincial parks act, and would require an act of parliament to change the ruling. "It's not going to happen overnight," Crabe added. He said that any changes in the motorcycle ban would take some time, and he didn't expect anything to take place this summer. Thirty members of the Bikers' Rights Organization met Tuesday with Ministry of Natural Resources of- ficials at the Chatham district office. Acting district manager Wendy McNabb and Pinery superintendent Jim Bass met with the motorcyclists to hear their requests. Ms. McNabb said the views of other users of the Pinery will be sought, possibly through a questionnaire, and lifting of the ban may be considered. The motorcycle ban was brought into effect 10 years ago to protect Pinery's fragile sand dunes. Bikes were being run throughout the park, damaging the environment. Also at that time there were some problems with rowdyism among motorcycle gangs. Crabe added that there were difficulties before the ban with motorcycles en- tering the park through the bush, rather than going through the main gate. Crabe says that now the provincial parks act contains a law to control off -road use of motorcycles. He said that motorcyclists operating off the main roads face sub- stancial fines, in other provincial parks. Pinery is the only provincial park in Ontario with a motorcycle ban.
