Received a number of responses to Mr. Vandeman’s short article on the Truth about Mountain Biking. Unfortunately the responses did not address the facts listed by Mr. Vandeman. Instead they where all focused on insulting, slandering and attacking the individual stating the facts. Not one of the obvious Mountain Bikers who responded addressed a single fact lists. But they sure had lots to say about Mr. Vandeman.
I could go off on a rant here, but I would only be lowering myself to the level of these people who think the natural world should be an amusement ride that we all pay for. Just for them. It is pitiful that no one addressed the facts of the destructive nature of repeated pounding of trails, the erosion and the fact that once Mountian Bikers hit a trail, ALL other trail Users go away.
Lets hear from someone who can tell me why all of this destruction and the forcing of others from a trails system, while all of our taxes pay for these systems is a correct way to do things. Or would it just be easier to attack me as a person so you would not have to deal with the facts?
