VERY IMPORTANT MEETING TONIGHT AT THE EAGLE COUNTY BUIDLING, WILDERNESS HIDDEN GEMS ON THE PUBLIC TABLE

Tonight, from 5-7 pm, at the Eagle County Building, the Wilderness Hidden Gems initiative is coming to the table, to be discussed in public forum. I'm not sure what the rest of you think about this proposed "feel good" proposal, but I personally think it is bullshit. The goal is to exclude all motorized use in "new" large swaths of public land because of their impact on erosion and wildlife in these areas, this INCLUDES mountain bikes. I am a mountain biker, and until someone actually does research telling me that mountain bikes physically fuck up trails more than four horse shoed hooves of a 2000 lb horse I aint buyin it. I live a 5 minute walk from the Eagle County building, what I would like to see are the mountain bikers show up on their bikes, and the horsey people show up on their horses, and we will then take turns doing laps inside the County Building hall floor for 5 minutes and see who fucks the floor up more. Guess what folks, it aint gonna be the Mountain Bikes....please come and speak your mind so the Mountain Biking community does not lose more PUBLIC land to use for their pleasure...thank you.

  1. ummmm....Are you comparing the floor of a county building to wilderness?

  2. .1% of White River National Forest use is horseback riding. Maybe we should kick the elk out of the wilderness too - their hooves probably cause some erosion.
