In any event, I sort of fulfill that role automatically whenever I ride. I always ask lost - looking folks if I can be of assistance, and have changed more than one flat tire.
I think it is a good idea if a place has lots of trails.
I know that Beverly is very active as a trail whatever in Ohio, where they have 100's of miles of trails.
Dnvrfox , thanks for the reply. The two groups that I mentioned all seemed to be of the age that they would qualify for the 50+ forum. I try to fulfill the role automatically as I pick up trash as I ride and deposit it in the nearest trash can. I always stop if I feel someone is in need. Perhaps I will hear from Beverly.
Thanks again,
