Definitely equates to protectionism and that shit never works out. Yeah, ban things that can straight up kill people (pollutants, guns, etc) but this ain't going to make regular MTBs any more accepted. Now the people who don't like MTBs to begin with will never be inclined to try an eMTB and perhaps change their view on the subject of trail access. Slowly the MTB trail access will be whittled away because you all only have a small contingent of "hardcore" riders to speak up and who hate compromise. Great job you lot of grumpy gusses...
