I have seen limbs down and try to stop or atleast kick them off the trail as I ride by. I even moved a huge limb/tree on monbo last Thursday. (mainly @LNSP) Should I leave them? Looks like most others do.. Just wondering. Thanks RC

Most definitely move them. You cant imagine how much help that is to those maintaining the trail. Keep it up!!  Smiley

Bunny Hop = no problem for me. I worry about my wife (Who's behind me) crashing on a stick, I can easily slide off the trail, or anyone else who's behind me.

Maybe I'm just getting old but I just can't understand what the hell ISITWINTER says with all the Interweb shorthand...That and I have two 8 year olds at home so I get plenty of that brand of humor.... Wink

That's what I have to use to decipher what he is saying.

Problem is I don't have the time or inclination. 

Mostly just click to turn off the red button.

Only about 6% of his posts have been legible. Tells me he does not think enough of us to be clear.

Sorry to get off topic. Please feel free to move blow down and deadfall from trails. The spokes and deraillier you save may be your own or more important mine.

Hey Headsup, I for one really appreciate riders moving limbs and debris from the trail, no matter what trail it is. I was riding Laurel with Ed and Robin Saturday afternoon and we came across a tree leaning over the trail about head high after the creek crossing climb. Ed and I tried to move it, but it was still attached to the stump. I went back and cut it out after our ride. I worked all day Sunday moving limbs from the storm on Wildlife, Fallstown and Fox Loops. I will try to finish Wildlife this weekend if the weather will allow. Please keep moving atleast the bigger stuff if manageable, so some of our newer riders don't hurt themselves.

Do what you like. Stop hating people for their riding habits and get back to hating them for their skin color, religion, politics, and sexual orientation.

Aw c'mon guys. We're better than this. I've seen useless posts from all of us (including myself). Anyway, I'm with Slayemf on this one, I've heard some funny things from the guy.

And the "that'swhatshesaid" bit never gets old. "Crashed on a stick"... get it? Get it???? Let's stop all the hating all right? Who's with me?
