They counter the unfair influence of the Wilderness Advocacy Groups (WAGS) within public land managing agencies.
 
Advocates for Access to Public Lands  There are some things you just cannot put a price on; the annual family camping trip to that remote spot at the end of the forest road, mountain biking with your friends in the backcountry, trail bike riding on primitive forest trails, fishing with your child at your dad’s favorite spot, 4x4ing up that old logging road to your secret hunting camp. Of course the key to enjoying all these special times is access to your public lands. Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to ensure your grandchildren are able to enjoy all the same special places? There is a way & it is called the Semi-Primitive Back Country Recreation Designation. It will preserve access to Public Lands for Future Generations. Visit the web site and use the “Take Action” page and “Tools” page to see how you can help protect your right to access to public lands.
 
Rails to Trails  is creating a nationwide network of trails from former rail lines and connecting corridors to build healthier places for healthier people.

"I highly suggest you join the PAPA team.  I have been blessed to do what I love for a living over the past 20 years!  I truly believe that I have become the man I am as a direct result of learning life's lesson through the expression of riding a motorcycle!  I know that it seems unrealistic to have learned such lessons, yet when you become totally passionate about something, it is life altering.  I am excited to be a part of people of likeness, who are all passionate about what they love to do.  I truly believe that a family that plays together stays together!  Let's work towards creating a win-win relationship for everyone!"
