A page for us who hate bicycles, motorcycles, horses and pretty much everyone but ourselves.

Ride, don't slide.

It's now hit the National Post, wow. Digger, nice picture in the national media… I'm looking for an autograph next time I see you out there !

I've seen it on Global, The Globe and Mail, CBC, VanCityBuzz, News1130 and now the Post. Biggest issue for this lady will be the public shaming, not unlike the interior designer in Vancouver who poisoned some trees.

No name yet …. I wonder why.

Funny news here kids, this is fucking gold? "The bicyclers should have been arrested! Bicycles have no rights to be on trails! This is injustice"

Clearly a lol face palm, and a massive troll wtf! Humanity really sucks sometimes, actually most of the time… ie France.

Hmmmmm……….

Unauthorized surveillance by private citizens on public lands.

This sounds like a job for the BCCLA.

WTF? Unauthorized surveillance? Tell that to anyone of us that could have received a life sentence in a chair if this evil cow had been successful. Kudos to the folks that set up that unauthorized surveillance. Hope the sentencing judge rides. No time,no house arrest, just an ankle bracelet and 10 year prohibition on visiting any public lands on the North Shore. You go for an unauthorized walk lady and you get three hots and cot. Now that would really hurt this NIMBY. Bravo.

Safe Riding

LOL, s/he's got some gold in those comments too.

I'd say if they keep it up they'll be in Ken M territory in no time.

That is hilarious….and odd and twisted at the same time, unsure what to think.

i didn't see much in there i would classify as hilarious . . . there are some bitter and twisted people supporting that page . their activities are at best questionable , at worst could qualify as domestic terrorism : improvised firearm booby traps , trail spikes , nail boards .

i like a good hike too , but those are not good people and they certainly don't do their own cause much good .

huge props to the guys who actually undertook the time , effort and expense to catch the perp in this case . interesting they haven't released her name yet . pretty sure the cops are worried about retaliatory attacks on her property .

the biking community is rightfully angry about her acts , but she has been caught and will be punished . we need to show restraint and not sink to her level .
