This is nuts! Public lands should be for recreation. I can understand keeping motorized vehicles out of some areas but not mountain bikes.

Public means you are not allowed except by permission.

To the green nazis, the whole point of the federal government is to legislate humanity out of existence, to let nature take back the world. I am not exaggerating.

I'll stick up for the environmentalists here. Wilderness areas are places to get away from the snowboard set. When hiking on a trail in the Collegiate Range in Colorado I had to dodge some swift bikers. It's not their place. They can bike in the city, as they aren't slowing down to look at the scenery.

The result of each user group should be considered. Wilderness should be for the most basic forms of transportation....and no frigging speakers.
