Don't you guys know? Destroying nature and building houses over top is perfectly fine. Its those nasty little trails that are what's bad.

It appears that Mike Vandeman has hacked Wayne's account.

Wrongo. Trails are fine so long as you only walk on them. Preferably with a stern look on your face. Never mind that by definition a trail is an erosional feature. Erosional features created and sustained by feet are OK. Sustained by wheels is bad.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.

Maybe that is the key here, us mountain bikers just have too much fun to sustain the stern look on our faces. If we could only match the hikers with stern faces we could all get along.

I've practicing in front of the mirror. It looks like I'm brushing my teeth. I have also tried the "Dirty Harry" but that just scares the frogs. I think it's the 44 magnum headlights. "Go ahead Frog, make my night."

Easy, get married and have a daughter. The stern look pretty much becomes as easy as changing socks.

I picture enduramil as the guy with the blue tooth headset thing and phone on his belt.

ha! good vid. But back to the flagging tape, just rode through there after a nice 7th and crinkum this morning. Flagging tape is disconcerting; any info out there?

I didn't notice the flagging tape…

Did see a new trail sign for Griffen climb though!

Looking to ride the shore but don't know where to go?

What is the protocol for giving directions to a beginner trail with a sign at both ends? Aren't these the kind of trails that should be publicly advertised?
