if i ever catch someone shortcutting through the twisties I live leave them their with no way but to crawl out.
I found more straightening of the trails near the canal side not more than 500 from the big rock that is constantly being moved from the trail. I also found many logs removed, this has to be the time trialists trying to better their time, runners wouldnt spend time removing brush to shortcut a 25 ft bend. Maybe some barbwire or something will end up in these "new trail" variations. This kind of shit is why other parks wont allow mountainbiking. A couple of flats or clothesline of high-test fishing line and these felchers might get a clue.

I am also mid way through gathering materials to build a elevated boardwalk across the marsh on the blue trail. Over the last few weeks you might have noticed the 40 6 x 6's that are now 3 feet in the ground. These are for this project.
No fishing line please.
It probably will not happen, but perhaps a case can be made for putting a trail usage sign that suggests hikers / walkers / runner keep on red, and have orange for mtb. to be honest, i dont really understand why a hiker / jogger would want to use orange anyway. biking orange is a ton of fun, but i would think that hiking or jogging that trail would get annoying pretty quick. but i am not a runner.
I don't think its so unreasonable, considering they have trails that are not for biking...
The reason we blazed the twisties orange was to make it easy for hikers and horses to avoid the section. We know its not all that fun to walk, so its easy enough to stay off being a different color.
Banning them from it's use? Not smart. We (Jdog and I) worked long and hard to get the red trail to be legit and legal for cycling. For us to ask the park staff to ban a user group is totally against what we stand for as a group.
