Grouse Grind = bloody mess.

Remember a few years ago Whistler held great bike races? Before the Bike park? I remember the rumour going around that Intrawest shut down bike racing there because they claimed that there was erosion causing damage to the hillside and the subsequently the village. Now they have thousands of riders doing thousands of runs with wide trails that are made by tractors. What a joke! Now that MTB is bringing in money, they're embracing a bike park and future races.

The mass majority of these organizations claiming erosion by MTB'ers is eronious.

lesbiens, and I don't mean the good kind.

hikers also tend to stray off the paths more than bikers…nuff said
