“Mountain bikers are barbarians and have no right to be on any trail used by hikers – unless they want to get off their god damn fucking bikes and walk like everyone else. When they crash and injure themselves, I rejoice! If and when they manage to kill themselves, I say good riddance to bad rubbish! Death to mountain bikers!”

 

Upon reflection I have decided a bit of refinement is due. It is not “Death to mountain bikers”, but rather “Death to mountain biking”. After all, it is Blackblade who is promoting death to mountain bikers by his advocacy of the stupid and dangerous pastime of riding a bike on a hiking trail. All I want is for bikers to get off their god damn fucking bikes and walk like everyone else. That way they will live to a ripe old age ... and in good health too – and not be constantly pissing off hikers and equestrians.

Mountain bikes have wheels. Wheels are for roads.

 

Trails are for walking. What’s the matter? Can’t walk?
