ATV riders stand up BLM in Utah

I love riding ATV's but they got everyone blocked from using the trails around the city I used to live in. They totally tore up the sides of the hills because hillclimbing is fun, but it caused severe run-off and destroyed part of the trail system. Very few go out to just putter along the trails, and faster speeds mean more damage due to sliding and spinning tires. Too many ATV's riders have no concern for the area they ride in, and one rider is all it takes to tear up an amazing amount of ground. Ten conscientious riders will not make up for one careless rider.

And don't get me started on horseback riders! Talk about something that tears up trails! We'd ride trails on our mountain bikes after the horses had been through and it was horrible the damage done.
