[QUOTE="Horus, post: 1418181, member: 17219"] We have already tried this and know it doesn't work. If you make the first section of the trail hard to keep lesser equipped rigs out the twice-a-year wheelers will pave it. The rape of the 311 trail is a perfect example. As a wheeler who wheeled Reiter exclusively almost every weekend this does bother me, and NOT because I don't think small rigs should have their own trails. With one exception (Warjeeper) I never saw narrow short wheel base rigs at the old Reiter. Reiter was a utopia for hardcore rigs and buggies, all shod with large tires. A place where those who genuinely got off on the craft of technical rock crawling could live their dreams. There are no other areas (legally or publicly open) in Washington state where this is possible. [I]Not a peep[/I] was heard from the Korean War era rigs while we were still wheelin Reiter and the threat of its closure was on the table. No support whatsoever. Now here we are designing whole trails for those who couldn't be bothered in the first place. You can already wheel 95% of the trails in Washington without spilling your beer in a spring under 33 inch tired 60 year old flatty. That crowd is more than taken care of. I wonder if I can comment to DNR again? Do they not see the Rock Garden or the Outlet Mall? What we want is right there in front of them. [/QUOTE]
