MV is probably very opposed to horses as well but since one of his only
supporters is a real estate agent that bills herself as a "Horse
Property Specialist," he feels obligated to not publicly oppose them.

This is a shame since if he could be educated to direct his efforts
against the trail users that cause the most damage he would give up on
mountain bikes and concentrate on equestrians.

The trail users who cause the most damage, BY FAR, are mountain
bikers. They travel much farther& faster than anyone else.

More so that riders of off-road motorcycles and 4-wheelers, and drivers
of off-road trucks?
