Please inform your mountain biker friends that it is not in their interest to support the "America's Redrock Wilderness Act - S882" or SUWA.

Note what the SUWA website says about what is not allowed on wilderness lands:

What activities are not allowed in wilderness?

The Wilderness Act prohibits such activities as mining, chaining, water development, and timber harvest (although mining may occur where there is a valid pre-existing right to mine). The Wilderness Act also prohibits use of motorized vehicles in wilderness except under emergency circumstances. This means that chain saws, trucks, cars, bulldozers, off-road vehicles, helicopters, and other motorized equipment cannot be used within wilderness areas. Mountain bikes are not permitted in wilderness areas.
