We need Rick back in charge of the system. Everything was balanced until the MTB guys took over. Tired of this.

Total BS. He built half these trails. Show some respect to the guy who put in the sweat equity.

The trails have gone downhill ever since he left. He actually cares about the layout and the riders. Get Rick back on the job!
