Also, remember that the photo was taken immediately after the gold had been laid, so it should offer the compromise you speak of once it's settled :)

plus, any work in there will help avoid the gravel fate like the other side of the road. so thanks for that!

Is our public shaming for doing trail work over yet?

NEVER!! I WANT LADDER BRIDGES AND TEETER TOTTERS NOW!!

I'm happy to get outside and enjoy nature while I can, but I fear for the future of humanity

Not until I get my say first…

In the winter, between hiking and riding, I'm on Bridle 4-5 times a week, so obviously my opinion matters moar.

I took a spin across Bridle this morn to see what all the hubbub was about. I found the trail to be consistent with all of the other trails in the immediate network.

Total bullshit. Based on this thead, I was led to believe that this was going to be like a flatter Bobsled or something that I could absolutely rip on with my 35" wide bars.

I agree with the OP. NSMBA, you ruined yet another trail.

Now you're the victim? Come on. People just want to be assured that some of the trails will stay gnarly. Throw them a bone.

Nobody is shaming anybody for doing trail work… if that is what you get from the actual serious posts in this thread, then that is very disappointing.

passion is a double edged sword. Some one can have passion about riding/trail building. One can rage out of passion for what they believe in.
Your passionate. what? YOUR PASSIONATE! WHAT? Your passhin the trail that the trail werkersh are on.

I'm not sure you did what you were trying to do there. Or maybe my esarc meter isn't calibrated?

Yeah, I have no clue where you're coming from.

If people want gnarly, Bridle PATH is maybe the last place they should be looking.

You know Cam,nsmb would be a much happier place if we had an Esarc smiley. It would have been heavily used in this thread alone.
