Just Checking For Trail Conditions on MMBA

Wanted to ride Fort Custer so went on the board to check trail conditions.  This is the childish banter that even happens with simple questions about trail conditions (between two other members).  The dialog between the members is below.

How sad those forums have become.  Also pretty useless since there was no info on actual conditions, just some children bickering.  Does seem like the username Bigtymer has some mental issues.  Especially after claiming to care about his home trails (that he grew-up on) then belittles them by calling it just ‘sticks and pebbles’.  He continues his childish rants in the Luton Park forum as well.   There are more mature ways to get your message across, but we are talking about MMBA forums.

How many miles are rideable after the horse and bike split off?
Thanks


Re: Southwest: Fort Custer


If its wet and muddy all over you probably shouldn't be riding the trail

I think the correct response would be "do you have a mommy complex or something?"

Sorry bigtymer after two car loads driving an hour and 15 mins to Custer we should have turned back after we encountered the first mud puddle and maybe headed over to one of the local pubs and just got falling down drunk then drove home hoping not to pass out and kill someones grandmother on the drive home. But no we trudged on clearing brush and small trees off the green and red loops so the next person wouldn't have too. And the reason I even posted the trail conditions was so that someone wondering how the trails were could find out before they drove all the way there. I hope this makes you feel better about yourself and life in general.

I hope this make you feel better about yourself and life in general?? I'm pretty sure the southwest chapter advises riders to stay off the trails when they are muddy. if you ever ride SGA in Cannonsburg there are certain sections that are as wide as a double track road. Why, because riders ride the trail when it's muddy. So the trail widens and causes ruts. But hey I'm just look out for my home trails back in Michigan that I grew up riding. In case you're wondering about my life in general I would have to say its pretty darn good. Living in Grand Junction,CO and riding some of the hardest trails in the country has its advantages. So make do with your pebbles and twig trails, and try not to make enemies while riding muddy trails. Good day:)

  1. Bigtymer has a reputation for that on the forums. but youre right, one can't ask a simple question without getting insulted or a sarcastic response.

  2. I think the forums should eliminate nicknames- when you post your actual real name shows up. Don't like that? don't post. Having real names would prevent net-jerks from hiding on the web behind fake tags

  3. The bickering is still going on. Trying to check Luton conditions for tomorrow and nothing. I guess it's suppose to rain though.
