Why don't you go ahead and read the whole thing and get back to us with a useful review? Because our resident convicted criminal has never believed in scientifically accurate, peer-reviewed, statistically sound, research. The facts conflict with what he wishes was true. Bottom line, there is _no_ research showing that mountain biking is any more damaging to trails or wildlife than other recreational activities such as hiking or horesback riding. In fact, horseback riding has significantly greater impact on erosion and wildlife than hiking or mountain biking. But equestrians are usually well-connected politically, as well as being well-off financially, so attempts to ban horses from these areas have been fruitless. |

See http://mjvande.nfshost.com/scb7.htm (Wisdom et al). In fact, horseback riding has significantly greater impact on erosion and wildlife than hiking or mountain biking. But equestrians are usually well-connected politically, as well as being well-off financially, so attempts to ban horses from these areas have been fruitless. BS. You didn't cite any reaesrch (as I did), because you CAN'T. It doesn't exist! |
