More information on trails and biking opportunities in the New River Gorge National River is available at park visitor centers and on the park website (http://www.nps.gov/neri) under the Plan Your Visit tab. Bicycle use in units of the National Park Service is generally prohibited unless park managers follow special procedures to open designated trails for bikes. These procedures include analyzing the environmental impacts of bicycle use in the park and offering opportunities for public comment. The New River Gorge National River initiated the procedures in 2009, which have included three opportunities for public input and comment. Notification of this regulation was forwarded to the Federal Register today.
