[pct-l] NO BIKES SIGNS

[Edward Anderson]

I respectfully disagree. If they deface the sign, I will take a picture of that. If the signs, attached to the existing PCT posts, also state that there is a FINE for non-compliance many of them will be discouraged from ignoring the law. Do you have suggestions other than signs that might help to discourage them? If we do not become proactive they will win!  As you said, they are organized.

Recently on the TRT, the "No Bikes" sign on the Mt Rose Wilderness
boundary had a large "MBLF" (Mountain Bike Liberation Front) graffiti
on it. More signs just give the MTBers more opportunity to deface
things. While most of them are good citizens, a LARGE minority are not

Signs will not work and the MTB folks will not be satisfied until they
own all the trails everywhere, including the PCT and Wilderness. They
are organized, and savvy, and know how to work the system. This is NOT
a short term fight.
