Mountain Biking: Frequently Asked Questions (May 17, 2009)
Why do people mountain bike, and what harms does it do?
The Impacts of Mountain Biking on Wildlife and People (July 3, 2004)
It is clear that mountain biking is harmful to some wildlife and people. No one, even mountain bikers, tries to deny that. Bikes create V-shaped ruts in trails, throw dirt to the outside on turns, crush small plants and animals on and under the trail, facilitate increased levels of human access into wildlife habitat, and drive other trail users (many of whom are seeking the tranquility and primitiveness of natural surroundings) out of the parks.
Appeasing the Mountain Bikers (January 23, 2001)
Just because someone is able to purchase a machine that lets them ride off-road, that is no reason that the public should be required to provide them a place to use it.
Equal Access to Our Parks for Bulldozer Racing (November 24, 1999)
Tthere have been some problems, such as some people riding recklessly, going off the designated trails, and even secretly constructing illegal trails. But those are a small minority of bulldozer riders. You shouldn't allow a small minority to give the majority of us bulldozer racers, who ride responsibly, a bad name. Why should we be punished, just because of them, and be forced to walk, just like everybody else?
Why Off-Road Bicycling Should be Prohibited (May 31, 1997)
To most environmentalists, bicycles have always been the epitome of good. We are so used to comparing bikes to cars, that it never occurred to us that the bicycle would be ever used for anything bad. Indeed, replacing motor vehicles with bicycles deserves our adoration. But anything can be used for good or evil, and using bikes to expand human domination of wildlife habitat is clearly harmful.
Places in Need - Mountain Bike Damage
Trails are easily and seriously degraded by mountain bike use # especially when those bikes are ridden on wet or muddy trail.
Trail Damage Caused by Irresponsible Mountain Bikers
The damage caused by each mountain biker is much greater than that caused by a hiker, firstly because of the extra weight of the bike, and secondly because the soil is impacted continuously along the trail, while a hiker's feet hit the soil only at intervals.
