I like the nice flowy stuff, and I like my kids to have a spot to ride, but we
have zero expert level trails locally. Don't tell me it is selfish to want one
or two. We had 2. They got killed by the local alliance if government and
trail builders. "Too dangerous" (3-5ft tall drops, 1 or 2 skinny features, and
a steep hill)
Articles like this convince me that illegal is the only option because those
who should be advocating trail diversity are instead saying it is asking too
much. The guys building illegal trail today are the pioneers like Gary Fisher
and his gang. Some people would have said (and likely did say) that the fire
roads were good enough. I am so glad those old gents were not satisfied.
