VOICES (Continued/rom page 4) In fact, Ms. Berk left with the statement that she would "get me" for this. I await the culmination of that threat with bated breath - whatever she thinks she can handle. We have heard a number of mealymouthed statements about "Some of my best friends are bikers" and "These things take time and don't happen over night." They manage to shut us out overnight. Our patience has been interpreted as disinterest. Our absence from meeting chambers has been taken as granting the right to run roughshod over us and our rights on the land. We have trusted them and been disappointed every time. Now that we are standing up and speaking out, they try to buy us off with more promises and gavel us into silence when we don't bike the bait. No doubt the issues of Red Rock Canyon and Hungry Valley will be discussed as far from Kern County as possible, so as to assure the absence of people who might complain about commission tactics regarding those areas. Just as the people of Kern County stood up for ,the folks of San Bernardino against the awesome power of the state of California, so we would hope that people in other counties will stand up for us in our absence. We need to let these characters know that we are going to stick together. . CAM PAC will continue to speak out against state and federal interference in the rights of the motorcycling taxpayers to use their land. We could use the phone numbers of people in other areas who would be willing to be the contact point to distribute information to the bikers in their area. There are about four million dirt bikers in California. That's a lot of money and a lot of votes. Send one dollar to the Duck and one dollar to CAMPAC, and a lot of politicians and bureaucrats are going to say "Yes sir'" instead of "Sit down and shut up'" ,~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-~ I .
