There is still a lot of work to be done but we feel that the basics are in place. The Hobart MTB Park as it will be known, is going ahead in leaps and bounds. There is a lot of interest in the community, and many cyclists have offered their help already in constructing tracks etc. I will give a more detailed synopsis for the next meeting. 8.3 Clarence BUG 8.4 Glenorchy BUG 8.5 Hobart BUG – Ambrose Hobart Bicycle Plan Advisory Committee - Special Meeting - 28th February, 2005 - 2.00pm.

The strategy that is likely to emerge would be better regarded as an “ABC strategy” rather than a “national strategy”... The BFA Committee firmly believes the federal government should show leadership and develop a genuine strategy for cycling throughout Australia.” 9.2 9.3
