second comment...

This video shows a guy arrested for grabbing a hose from workers cleaning algae - not for cutting the liner as you claimed earlier. It's disorderly conduct/interference of workers. No Park Police reports confirm any arrests for the deliberate cutting of the blue coating.

Raw video...He grabbed the hose that female National Park Service workers were using ...

Then, in some really raw video, a female grabbed his hose.

His wife probably ordered him to do it.
Some posters on X are saying this guy’s bike cost at least
$15K (!!!!!).

A middle aged man disrupting stuff, just b/c it’s being done by President Trump’s orders. Loser.

down the scroll some other cat chimed in and I agree with him... The liner they painted on was delaminating from the pool cement because they didnt let the cement dry fully before painting on the new water barrier(Blue). this makes perfect sense why big sections of the coating is coming lose...

Bet he is one of those guys that purposely rides his bike in the middle of the lane to piss off drivers.

Here is the bike. Those wheels appear to be aftermarket, no telling how much they added.

$16,499 ! It’s his money. He must make a boatload of it to spend that much on what is essentially an adult sized Toy.
At some point, no matter how many bells & whistles you agree to pay for, it’s still just a Bike.

However...

Over time, i have learned that most folks like something to lavish a great deal of attention on. Sometimes that is another person, or a car, pet or hobby.

"All he did was to grab a hose."

And that's normal behavior for an old liberal boomer?

After searching, it appears the wheels are about $1,500.00 a piece, so add another 3K to the price of the bike.
