SOUTH COW MOUNTAIN, Calif. – The Bureau of Land Management will close the South Cow Mountain Off-Highway Vehicle Area to general recreation use and through traffic from Friday, April 1, through Sunday, April 3, to provide public safety during two motorcycle race events.
The North Bay Motorcycle Club has been granted an exclusive-use permit to use the trails throughout the OHV area for the Crosscut Family Enduro and Sawmill Enduro events.
As many as 200 riders per event are expected.
“With that many riders traveling at high rates of speed, we have to be as certain as we can be that no one accidentally gets onto the race course,” said BLM Ukiah Field Office Manager Rich Burns. “We are restricting access for the safety of both the participants and the public.”
The area will be reopened to the public on Sunday afternoon as soon as the last participant is off the course.
In the event of rain, the races and subsequent area closure will be postponed to April 8 through April 10.
Information about the enduro events is available from the North Bay Motorcycle Club: www.northbaymc.org/ .
For additional information about the Cow Mountain Recreation Area, contact the BLM Ukiah Field Office at (707) 468-4000.
