    Nice representing, Jim!

    It just kills me that there are so many ignorant people out there that would tear up a beautiful park. And, Mr. ATV who commented on the article with such bias almost motivated me to respond. I'm a former ATVer and can still appreciate the plight of limited riding areas, but he rubbed me the wrong way citing that their group puts in more work... bla blah blah. Open mind. Calm. Relax. Deep breath.

    OK, I'm copacetic.
    I wanna ride!

    ok, i read the article and comments before posting dso i knew what i was talkin about.

    the comment was made about sunderbruch being a failure as a bike park. does he know about the race held ther last year, the ones scheduled for this year. what about the demo day and mtbiking 101. dammit people are one sided. i have friends that have never been on a bike telling me i am ignorant for riding sometimes. n e ways. would there not be enough room to allow both at sunderbruch or have we taken the park beyond that level.

    i don't necessarily have the answer but agree they should be able to ride somewhere in the cities also without having to travel.... like solon, ia.

    enough on this, just going to frustrate people without the right voices.
    the wheels on my bike go round and round......

    We have taken the park beyond quadding. And, Solon, IA isn't so great for quadding.

    SBP in his opinion is a failure because it doesn't allow for his sport of chocie which I can understand him being frustrated about. That doesn't mean it is a failure and I think he was reckless in proclaiming that without having broader knowledge base about the topic.

    Maybe this article and his comments bring to light something important... that more exposure about the park and the purpose it is serving should be better highlighted.

    He also needs to remember that QCBC isn't the only source to consult when it comes to biking in the area - especially off-road. I don't think he's aware of all the stuff we do - just concerned about where he can tear up trails.
