Ahh, overuse just like Bent Creek. Rode there 2-3 years ago after being away for more than 10years and was shocked at how over crowded it was and how blown out the trails were.

They'll do like Moab and just start shutting that shit down. Which, IMO, is a pretty reasonable response to people that are being unreasonable.
Too much to ask.Over crowding is one thing.........but at least pickup your own trash, what the heck people?
For example - I was backpacking recently not too terribly far from Denver, and one day we were day-hiking from camp, checking out the hills around a pretty alpine lake, and we cam across the remnants of a fire pit. Which isn't a big deal... but there, in the midst of the fire pit, were 3 fucking TIN CANS - two large ones and one that was probably a tuna can(?).
These fucking dolts carried CANNED FOOD up 2K vertical feet for dinner, then, instead of carrying the light, empty cans back down decided that it would be OK to just leave them in the fire pit.
After the sun went down Max Patch probably turned into a giant public toilet with that many campers. That’s the one thing about camping out on a bald, no cover for pooping.
Those DOLTS!Too much to ask.

That is like Tim Hortons coffee cups here. You'll find those things EVERYWHERE. Like deep in the jungle type everywhere, what the heck was someone walking out into the bush with a coffee for, only to leave it under a tree or something? I'm surprised Tim Hortons hasn't come up with compostable cups yet.
With 1.4 hours of driving I'd say that they cost a hell of a lot more than $40.Here.
Classified ad guy almost ghosted me after driving 1.4hours for cranks.. got back to me just as I gave up. Near new Holz cranks, rings, bash and Giga BB for $40 (That;s like $1.75USD..)
Werk, werk, werk.....
Dude, that’s nothing. They literally shit on the trails in the South. Saw a towel laying on the ground at an overlook. Then I noticed the turd next to it. I see trash on every single hike at the local state park. I’d be delighted if all I saw was a couple of burned cans in a fire pit. Hell they burn plastic at the campground.Too much to ask.

What I appreciate is when someone picks up their dog's shit in the woods, puts it into a plastic bag, then leaves the plastic bag in the woods. How the fuck is a plastic bag full of dog shit better than just a pile of dog shit that will decompose in a few weeks?Too much to ask.

Went to recycle some metal, picked up a Huffy kid's bike, fixed it up, taking it to be given to a foster child.
That drives me up a wall.
This also is not just the South... I've run into this all over the place out here as well.
Yeah - fuck Kansas. Jeezus. What a bass-ackwards hellhole that place is.
Yeah - that topic is one of epic rants 'round here. And what you end up with there is the banning of dogs in places... because a few fucking asshats can't be bothered to carry their dog's shit out.
Hell - they had to close a goddam DOG PARK in the foothills here because people are fucking dolts.
A driver was arrested for allegedly jumping over a rising drawbridge
Luke and Bo Duke would have been mighty proud.

True
We took the turnpike (aka I70 with tolls ?!? Wtf Kansas?) and there were speed traps around every hidden exit bend, over every blind crest, sitting high on every on-ramp, and hidden behind pilings on every overYeah - fuck Kansas. Jeezus. What a bass-ackwards hellhole that place is.
-crossing. I saw more state troopers on the turnpike than I did in the rest of the state and CO combined, and I still saw a lot... It saves ~20min, but your likelihood off a ticket goes up by multiples. Almost not worth taking it and enjoying the country road that parallels it.
And we're home. Been for about 30min now. Layla has been losing her mind the whole time, as has Hannah.
@Nick's windmill farm in KS is fucking huge, btw. We couldn't see the end of it from the highway.
I didn't factor travel as we were going that way anyway. But yes, they'd be $90 had we not planned it...
Yerr.. RIP
Stoney Going from Chicago to Livermore on I80 I think I saw a total of 8 cop cars last month...remind me to never take 70
It's Kansas. They are so underfunded they the state is largely supported by traffic tickets.

never averaged under 95 mph for the trip through kansas....never saw po po....
She actually tried to convince us to move there because it has a low cost of living. We pointed out that there are no jobs there aside from raising cows, goats or sheep...
First time on the bike since going boom. 36 miles, average speed around 19.5 mph. I’m gonna pay for this, but it was AMAZING to ride again.
Pretty sure Stinky was from Omaha.
Second best, a great blow job is the best
One of those is consistently much easier to acquire.
