Throttle Therapy Faces County Pushback | Richmond News

While supporters tout it as vital outdoor recreation for families, critics fear it disrupts rural character and places burdens on local residents. Despite county staff’s concerns about alignment with conservation goals, the final decision rests with the Board of Supervisors next month — and Throttle Therapy remains undeterred, confident this is just one step toward preserving Powhatan’s future through responsible recreation.
