More Colorado cry babies.........
From MB Action October 2003 edition.......A letter in the Trailgrams from Keith
Rossow from Durango Colorado IF YOU DON'T LIVE HERE ---------------------------------------- I reside in Durango, Colorado, and our trails are starting to look like LA freeways. I read Durango made your top ten places to live (MBA May 2003). Great, just what we need! We can't "escape" the mobs of people here inundating our trails. Sometimes I wonder if I should just sell my Intense Tracer and use the money for a shrink. I had to write to you folks because my family thinks I'm going crazy. Kieth Rossow Durango Colorado -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Boo hoo! Unless that land is posted no tresspassing or no bikes allowed, TOUGH! Those trails are for everyone to enjoy! |

Just because something isn't public doesn't always mean it should be publicized. Especially for the readers of ridiculous magazines. Chris |

Especially for the readers of ridiculous magazines. You must consider the source here Chris. This thread was started by a reader of ridiculous magazines. Besides, sidewalks are far from "little-used", so turdsmokerski will always have a crowd to contend with when he's "mountain biking". JD |

Chris Unfortunatley, there are few areas to ride in NW PA to begin with, let alone areas that are little known to others. Why hide them, people are going to find them anyway? As a matter of fact, there is a bike shop near me that has cut a total of 15 miles of single track at a local reservoir. I heard stories about this and decided to call the shop. The owner was very reluctant to tell me anything about it. The point is, sooner or later someone is going to find out about them. If the shop owner wouldn't have given me such an attitude about it, I may not have done this, but, after finding the trails on my own, I came home and promptly posted them to MTBreview.com. |

JD Well, I must admit, I did see 7 others on todays short ride, but they were all in the first 1/2 a mile. 2 groups of 2, 3 other singles. Many more than usual, but this particular trailhead is in town. I'm not sure what Mr. Rossow, the claimed original author and reported "cry baby" is upset about, in over 40 miles of my last 3 rides (2 town rides, one alpine) I crossed paths with 10 other riders, (and 7 of those were today) during the busy Labor Day weekend. I did a quick check for the Rossow name on Trails 2000 web site (our local trail group), he or his family is not listed. It may be that he is still a member, I can't be sure, but if not, well you make the call. It is all relative, but for my money, the trails here in Durango are in great shape, close, abundant, and uncrowded almost all the time. You want crowded, try the front range. -- Craig Brossman, Durango Colorado (remove ".nospam" to reply) |
