You are right… we all pay gas taxes to repair roads… it is hidden in the cost
of fuel. The whole reason I mention this is the following:
I am disheartened when I see the number of Trail Passes purchased voluntarily
in the Lower Mainland to support the North Shore Mountain Bike Association and
their trail efforts. 100 - 200 ??!!!! WTF??? Really- a cradle of riding and I
think some where around that amount were purchased… And all the work they do
for the trails.
Now up comes an invention to make it easier to access the trail head. For
those that are JUST PLAIN LAZY - and they exist - great- now we enable them to
be lazy and take a toll on the trails.
Trails are not free. Trails to not repair themselves. We all use the Trails-
We all should support our Trail Associations!
TAX EVERYONE DAMN IT! : )
