20% is an *awfully* high ratio of assholes. It only takes one to ruin your
day. If the number was 1% and the other 99% were all over that 1% then
maybe ok to let them on multi-purpose trails.

I will honestly say that about 80% of the Mountain Bikers I meet on
trails other than the PCT are really cool people.
About 20% are compete assholes, usually zooming by me at high speed
scaring the crap out of me. They have machines, and they go fast, and
they don't like that I am there "in their way." It is enough to keep
me of the trails frequented by bikes.
100% of the Mountain Bikers I meet on the PCT are assholes, just by
the mere fact that they are there.
