odot1 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Not a great start to the season... From their Facebook page: Kawartha Lakes Snowmobile Club January 14 at 4:47pm · Trail Closed!!! Thanks to a hand full of Trespassing "freestylers" we have lost another piece of trail!!! What part of "STAY ON TRAIL" can you not read? With just about 50 landowners we work hard with each year, we have just lost a trail with 4 of them. Trespassing onto fields off of the marked trail, that our volunteer board members works with landowners to put a trail thru, to give us all a great trail to ride is Lost and won't be regained because of a few rotten apples ruining for the rest of us! Congratulations! Soon KLSC won't have any trails if this "free style" attitude continues. It is trespassing!!! You ruined this landowners seeded fields! It is All our jobs to protect our landowners --ALL of US who ride KLSC trails and thru out Ontario! If you see off trail sledders Report them! If you are one of these persons thinking it's, NO HARM done. Well you are the problem you caused this loss you don't deserve to ride! Thank you for the ultimate slap in the face! Liz Phillips, KLSC. https://www.facebook.com/Kawartha-Lakes-Snowmobile-Club-136438619749165/?hc_ref=NEWSFEED&fref=nf Some the comments are just stupid....

02sled Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 And here I just read an article in Snowtrax about how the sales of hybrid sleds made for going off trail are increasing, that the clubs need to adapt and provide for people to go off trail. It's discouraging to see that type of article which is implied encouragement for people to go off trail and play in the powder when we are losing trails thanks to this stupidity. You want to play in the untouched snow, travel to the mountains, find the crown land in the north but stay the hell off the private property. You are entitled to nothing. It would be poetic justice to track down one of these idiots who cost us our trails and rip up their front lawns for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puzzleboy Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) This problem is easily fixed. Ban long tracks east of BC. Anybody buying mountain sleds or snowbikes out here, is simply looking to trespass somewhere. It's that simple. And the Lesters are constantly profiling this crap, knowing full well it is killing organized snowmobiling. And MBRP is one of their main sponsors, manufacturers of products that are also closing trails. And their show, ultimately.
