There is an election coming up next week and while much of the debate has been about the role of government in our lives, on our mountain bike micro-level the real issue is who owns the dirt.

Dirty Words: A great day to be a selfish cyclist

in every case the authors misinterpreted their own data

This sounds delusional to me. We also have a peer-review process to address this, so unless you can show in the peer review process where your point is made, your claims are totally without merit on their own.

I'm also not sure if you've ever built, hiked, or ridden any trails. All trails will eventually go away if they are not maintained and used. That is just a fact. I've seen plenty that were reclaimed, plenty that required maintenance, and that was not contingent upon type of use or the type of trail it was. Even paved roads need maintenance. So basically, I think you are an idiot to claim that trail maintenance would not be necessary if we didn't have bikes on the trails.

This report verifies what I've observed over the years of hiking, riding, and working on trails: http://www.btceb.org/pdf/jmp_report.pdf

Furthermore, you are old and mean and have been convicted of assault on trail users. What does that teach to kids?

It's ok to be crazy though, there's no law against that.
