That is cool! I wonder what all they will have. I just joined REI because I am gearing up for BorregoFest and other outings.
rei used gear sale 9/20-9/21

REI is an advocate for the closing of OHV trails 
i've boycotted REI a long time ago...mainly due to price.
Yeah they have always been to high priced for me. I can`t believe they try to close our trails. I won`t be buying from them for sure now.
I don't believe it either. So I will keep buying from them.
I can't find anything on this either. got any links? Sounds ricockulous that an outdoor company would be trying to limit outdoor activity. I never bought from them just because bass pro is cooler.
There is a thread somewhere on it in here.. or in the blue room.FunJunkie said:I can't find anything on this either. got any links? Sounds ricockulous that an outdoor company would be trying to limit outdoor activity. I never bought from them just because bass pro is cooler.
Not sure.
but the gist of it was that they are pro hiking, anti 4 wheeling
Yep I have a trip planned to Bass Pro next time we head out to Cleghorn. Its right off the 15 freeway. Its just not right to pass that store without stopping in.
ususally when i pass by i have my dog along so i can't go in.
They sell OHV trail books there. Dom, where did you get this info?DominicG said:REI is an advocate for the closing of OHV trails

That could be the next great socal shirt idea!Fjamming said:Let's boycott pavement.
Post #7 is worthless without a link.DominicG said:post #7
well if i searched for it and found a link there would be a link there.
I kinda sorta might recall something that I may have read somewhere, possibly either here or possibly there.... I'm just not sure....But I'm sure it's true.
I'm sure they are at least pro - "enough trail driving to get your mountain bike to the good spots".
Edit... Almost forgot... I found it on a forum on the internet, so of course it is completely factual.

The only thing I found, was a forum, where someone said that REI supported the Sierra Club and another similar state organization. (FYI, the link was dead and I could only see it via the Google Cached link).
I'm personally not a big fan of the Sierra Club, but from a business perspective, I completely understand why REI, as a company, would try to help support the Sierra Club. That said, I, again personally, don't agree with what the Sierra Club stands for most of the time, but they are not completely bad.
The same thing can be said for OHV. There are some groups and users who are HORRIBLE, and making a bad name for all the rest of us. I believe it is up to the responsible behaving participants to clean up after the a$$ hats, and to confront the a$$ hats whenever they are doing things in the wilderness they shouldn't do.
My 2 cents.
Is this all getting as political as blue yet? ;D

What are you trying to say Dave? lol I agree in that just because someone supports The Sierra Club does not necessarily mean that they do not condone responsible OHV usage. If that is what you were trying to say that is...CADavebert said:The only thing I found, was a forum, where someone said that REI supported the Sierra Club and another similar state organization.
