  1. Not you Penny. I would like to know who exactly gives back...

    How many in this group actually performed trail work in your area this year?
    (any ORGANIZED amount)

    More than you can imagine with the Mountain Bike Patrol and two local
    clubs. This summer we will be building 30 miles of new trails (true
    singletrack) in Buffalo Creek. We will do it by raising funds locally
    and working with the USFS and not ask for funding from them since it was
    pretty much all taken away.

    Also, it's not always about giving back with a group. Yesterday, we
    stopped where some inconsiderate riders had created a new trail around
    mud and closed it off with branches, logs, etc. Whenever I see someone
    stopped on the trail I ask if they have everything they need. I stop to
    chat with hikers and equestrians to show we are all here for the same
    reason.

    So Dave, it's a good start. Keep it up.

    Yes. I put in the hours I could, gave what I could afford, and supported
    fund raising events. There's a good movement going on here and it's nice
    to be a part of it.

    About 40 hours so far. On a big trail day we'll hike in with a
    chainsaw, shovels, pickaxe and machete. As a group ( I only managed to
    help a few times this year) we've spent over 100 hours clearing and
    building trails. One of which is about 20km and the management of which
    has now been taken over by the local forestry commission.

    Another one, a short 6km loop, has now been listed as a nature
    ride/hike for local tourism, and we've held 3 races there so far.

    Laters,

    Marcus

    I'm on my 10th year of organized trail work with hundreds of hours and many
    miles of trail under my belt. I am now the "Trail Boss" or Trail Work
    Coordinator for Richmond Area MORE here in Central Virginia.

    I poached 5 illegal trails, killed 7 whip snakes, ran over 3 jack rabbits,
    and hucked a herd of cattle. Got a little thirsty on that last one, so I
    crawled under one to poach some fresh milk.

  14. There are only two ways you would see a show of my hand, pig boy. One
    would be with the middle digit extended and the other would be in the
    form of a knuckle sandwich headed for that big, empty noggin of yours
    at about 100mph.

    Dueling Banjoes played in my head after I read that.

    I wonder how often Dave does his Ned Beatty impression....

    E.P.

    P.S. Saw that movie 20 years ago, and it still creeps me out.

    ummm, whipsnake. Tire-Tenderized whipsnake. Better than chicken or
    jack rabbit in a rosemary/tarragon sauce.

    that...and it also answers the question quite succenctly. You DON'T GIVE
    BACK TO THE TRAILS YOU RIDE!! Your a neanderthal whose time is past...why
    don't you just disappear into the woodwork then go ahead....please!

    promises promises OZ...just empty promises....along with your m-t e

    Plumpy penguin, I pay taxes many times a day. And you don't feed me
    nothing, I eat out at very nice restaurants, Jasons Deli, Wendys,
    Shorty Lus Diner, Country Buffet, so Gay-Penguin-Alot, what is it with
    this tax homeless worthless debut attack of me coming from, is there an
    angry gay child within you seeking acknowledgement? Are you tired of
    keeping your homosexuality a secret from the public? I do have those
    pictures of you making out with J.D., be careful penguin squad
    commander, I might embarrass you if the Mooses don't do it first. BTW,
    are you looking for some fighting lessons so when the Moosey meets you
    on the trail to take your fishy away, you can fight him?
