What are the consequences?Hopefully this crazy influx of new riders will make the county reconsider their laws and make riding in parks legal. Its either that or they are going to crack down hard on mountain bikers in county parks as they have done from time to time. I'm friendly with an Essex sheriff, you don't want to get caught if they have orders to stop mountain bikers. It only takes a couple complaints from hikers to stir shit up.
I used to ride Mills ( we called it Freaks Peak as teenagers and would hang out and drink a few beers )from time to time. But once the person fell off the cliff and passed away, I have stayed away. People never bothered me. But then again I never went on weekends. It's not worth it anyway. South Mountain I am sure is awesome. I just don't know the trails.What are the consequences?
I think most residents don't mind mountain bikers here but wouldn't agree to legalize it because the crowd it would bring to the Essex county parks.
I had a guy record me and start threatening to send it the Essex county sheriff. I kept my mouth shut and he just kept threatening me. Hi
Worst case: $500 Fine and bike confiscationWhat are the consequences?

Welcome aboard Ian. Well , you chose the worst county to move into for mountain biking. I'm here too. High Mountain is not too far for legal riding. My favorite parks are about 45 minutes away. Mahlon , Chimney Rock, Allamuchy North.
