A well balanced programme, as has been said.
I have to say, the only losers in bikes vs walkers confrontations are the bikers. It's clearly anti-social, it's noisy and alienating with people unable to see a human face. To draw an analogy for a bystander, it's like watching 'hoodies' with faces covered; you've no idea whether what they are doing is allowed or not, but you're automatically suspicious.
I think for the greater good of peace & tranquility, motorised trail riding should be limited or reduced in some way.
Never thought I'd hear myself saying that, but it's a sheer numbers thing.
Bonk around on a windy midweek astride an old brit iron in an open face and you'd get away with it, but a group on long travel suspended trailies in motocross gear? Forget it.
