The problem is, you end up with attitudes like yours. Viewing winding up landowners as some sort of sport. The problem being that to him you’re just dickish MTB’er number 20 of the day and his accommodating nature ran out 19 dickish MTB’ers ago.
And no one’s been threatened with a shotgun or run off the road. They’ve been stopped by a guy in a 4×4 holding a shotgun.
1) Read my post. I never said I view winding up landowners as “some kind of sport” but whether I was MTBer no. 1 of the day or MTBer 9999999999999999, I wouldn’t appreciate being intimidated, and it’s pretty predictable that some people will take unkindly to this, and I don’t appreciate being called a “dickish” for suggesting that people won’t react well to being intimidated. I was just pointing out that there’s quite clearly 2 sides to this.
2) Read the thread. It had been mentioned prior to my comment, and has been reiterate since that he did drive his car at a bunch of MTBers.
