As both a bicyclist and a birder I would prefer to examine the exact 
details of what is being considered before being asked to draw 
conclusions or express opposition. Are those email addresses you listed 
the appropriate people to contact for the details? Or is the proposal 
posted on the web somewhere?

As someone who has birded and hiked the park extensively, I feel compelled to oppose any consideration for a bike trail at CVP. The character of the park would be altered and the impact on habitat would be too great.
