Its under a bunch of flashing adds.......Hey Oly, what is the trail named under on MTBR?
You dont sound stupid, I was just being sarcastic.sorry if i sound stupid, but i dont understand what you mean.
Post was reported here for giving a location of a secret trail. We can't effectively enforce all "secrets" like that, but please be respectful of when trails aren't public knowledge and aren't to be ridden by the general masses. This message board gets a lot of visitors each month so a secret trail has the potential to be quickly overrun.
Thanks!
It was a vague description of how to get there, and I am not familliar enough with the area to know if it was sufficient to find the trail.Did anyone really give out the location?
The trail should not have directions, location, mt name, or cute hints posted on the net. The builders would like the trail kept secret. If you know where it is, you should feel fortunate, and do your part to keep it buff and dialed, and the neighbors and loggers happy. You may show trusted friends, but not everyone you know, much less anybody and everybody on the internet.
The main builders live at the end of a dirt road. They are great guys, but value privacy and seclusion. As do their nieghbors. People live out in the middle of nowhere for a reason.
Random crowds of strange dudes showing up in their driveway are not welcome.
Good point, but I agree with everything he said.Not a good idea to do an article in a HUGE bike mag then.
Ditto!This is a real interesting thread. For me it spells out the biggest problem of all. In Seattle we have a ton of good and great riders with no where legal to go. I think it's time to get behind those that have already organized. Even if you don't think they represent you specifically. They do work with local land owners and governmets and if freeriders and downhillers add themselves to the ranks of the XC riders via organizations like BBTC and the Cascade Bike Club, we can be a part of moving the ski hills and other rec lands towards our needs. Peace!
Hello?!?!?! Are you at least going to tell me!The trail(s) we are working on now will be shown to NO ONE. Not even some of the people that helped work on the Duvall trails will know about these ones. Some of them have too many "close, personal" friends.
Don't get me wrong, they will get found eventually. In the meantime people will bitch about secret trails. To them I say - GO BUILD YOUR OWN. I don't care about the argument that they are built on public property, I'm still not telling anyone where their at.
And we are also in the planning stages on some trails that will be built on private property (with owners permission) that will be kept the same way.
Haha........oh wait he hasn't told me either :huh: .........ah trailhacker....buddyHello?!?!?! Are you at least going to tell me!
