Message: [QUOTE="Green Hornet, post: 905689, member: 60370"] Had a run in with one of the TREE HUGGERS yesterday. Was riding the ridges which paralells the Appalachian Trail in Orange County NY. Most of my ridings is along powerlines & 150 Acres of private property which the owner allows, except during Hunting Season (Don't Argue with an Old Italian Guy w/a .30-06). Any way, as I exited the trail a car pulls off the road quickly and a guy gets out w/camera in hand and starts taking pics. I looked at him, waved and continued on my way. I was thinking A-Hole. So I turn around up the trail and continue back and stop along the dirt that ajoins the road w/Powerlines. Cameraman comes out of know where and gets out of his car. I position the bike in the direction of a quick getaway incase he's one of those HUMPS that likes to push people from there bikes. Anyway he tells me that he is a volunteer with the NY/NJ Trail Conference and starting Summertime State Rangers will be ticketing riders who venture into the Appalachin Trail Area. This is not just NY. So riders beware if you ride in proxcemity to this trail look for YELLOW MARKINGS on the trees that indicate you are on this type of property. I stated to him, that on Numerous occassions, I've picked up Clothing, Beer Bottles and assorted Items and left the at roadside in plastic bags for P/U. I understand that there is a small percentage of idiots out there that disturb delicated hills, cut trees as well as cut through baricades that are ment to KEEP US OUT. If you come across something like this, DON'T DO IT, because this is what it leads to is increased Enforcement. After talking with him he deleted the picture, before I could ask for an 8x10. Just pass the word from Georgia to Maine :p [/QUOTE]
