[QUOTE="japerry, post: 1417452, member: 17178"] I find these comments interesting, as this is exactly what was happening in the days of Reiter. It was always against the law to build new trails without DNRs authorization, except it was a traffic infraction instead of a misdemeanor. [b]Nothing[/b] in their view has changed. Not saying that its okay, but it is hypocritical to blast those who are building new trails, when most people on here at some point were doing it themselves. [b]even worse is those who are blasting those for talking about the idea of building trail, then go out and wheel illegally themselves[/b] :rolleyes: Regardless... what I'm saying is not that we should be, or will be doing it (even though we all know the answer to that), rather that it is what is already happening and will only get more intense. Thus we should be working with the DNR to get them to open certain sections up for us instead of expecting all of us to sit at home for the next 5 years waiting for funding. Those are the choices, you know.... Sit at home for the next 5 years -- bitching and moaning on a forum, or going out and doing what wheelers, motorcycles, mtn bikers, horseback riders, mtn climbers, and hikers have been doing for the last 40 years. While some here might be perfectly willing to sit back, or worse-- willing to turn in their fellow man for things they used to do.. there is a growing group of people who are sick and tired of this funding game. Its time for an attitude shift. Its time for us to stop playing along with whatever the government says. Its time for us to say 'no'... Remember the big Reiter meeting with Mark Mauren? We failed as a community there. We bought their bullshit that the place would be open by spring/summer 2010. Hell, I stood up and told people that we should trust DNR and that this would be okay. I feel like we've been betrayed. We were told that funding was 'pretty much there'.. and then we find out that.. opps! nope. So my question to everyone here is... what are [b]you[/b] going to do when our last places close? Stay at home? goto Oregon/Idaho? or figure out plan B? [/QUOTE]
