FIFYdo you shape your chest hair to suit a one piece swimsuit? It's a level of dedication I can't fathom but can applaud.

The NIMBY's are on fire.Let me tell you something mate, making a public statement of mountain bikers riding unsanctioned trails is not a good look for the Brisbane mountain bike community, it's exactly this that's giving fuel to the Green groups and it's putting a handbrake on everything. It's no longer a bargaining tool like it was in the 90's, it makes us look like outlaw environmental criminals. Gap Creek trail network (the only legal trail network within the Brisbane city precinct) was meant to be a model to show the community how well sanctioned trials work, instead it has done the opposite. That Borra group has a lot to answer for, they're gambling with our trails, throwing punches in the dark like a bunch of desperates and escalating the problems.
I'm trying to tell people not to do it but there's a mtb advocacy group telling the council it's too bad because they don't let them build legally, all the Karens have jumped on board with the Greenie groups, voted against council's draft plan to get some of the stuff legalised and to build it to cope with environmental laws. A lot of the trails have been there for longer than 15 years but people take it upon themselves to expand them.^ to be fair, they're legitimate concerns.
They look like Corey Bohan’s old spot that was around there. They were awesome (though it’s been probably ten-twelve years since I was there last).Not gonna lie those trails and that hut look like such a good spot to ride.
Pretty sure it's cabbage tree creek near Carseldine.They look like Corey Bohan’s old spot that was around there. They were awesome (though it’s been probably ten-twelve years since I was there last).
Most of what these green groups are saying is rubbish, who's going to build dirt jumps in a flood zone that need to be rebuilt all the time.Not gonna lie those trails and that hut look like such a good spot to ride.
We looked at a similar issue for the (now failed) Mt Coot-tha zipline project. As there are busy roads, a quarry, aircraft noise impacts on the bushland already the ambient noise was high so the impact of the project was minor in terms of standard noise assessment metrics.Most of what these green groups are saying is rubbish, who's going to build dirt jumps in a flood zone that need to be rebuilt all the time.
At one of the parks they claim that noise of mountainbikes disturbs animal habitats but what they forget to tell everyone is that you can hear the train station, the main road and planes in the sky, over the noise that your mountain bike makes when you ride there.

I saw a bigger issue being a potential predator response reaction from wildlife with a high speed object audible flying through the tree canopy. Same could be said for mountain bikes I guess but the (project) ecologists reckoned it was a non-issue. The wildlife seem to get used to those kind of sounds over time and move back into those close proximities to trails etc. when comfortable again.
Anecdotally I'm seeing the same stuff happen around the Yarra Trails, both from my time working at Parks Victoria and during the lockdown. Trails have been there, "illegally" for years and PV tacitly acknowledged it and (privately) have had no issue with people riding them. Then lockdown happens, trail expansion goes nuts and the councils / PV respond by shutting down whole areas where trails used to run through. Certain "conservationists" haven't helped either, many cases of trees being pulled down(!) to block trails.A lot of the trails have been there for longer than 15 years but people take it upon themselves to expand them.
Damn right. The bong hut is freaking awesome. It might be worth a road trip just to rip through a bag before it gets knocked down!Not gonna lie those trails and that hut look like such a good spot to ride.
It's two way...no point convincing everyone how fragile the ecosystem is and just building a fire road through it. Teenagers give about 0 fucks for ecological sustainability, they want jumps! A few kids in my neighbourhood have just built a few jumps out of sand (yes...sand! In a shitty garden bed near my house. If the authorities build/facilitate interesting trails and features they will reduce the number of dickheads building garbage.Anecdotally I'm seeing the same stuff happen around the Yarra Trails, both from my time working at Parks Victoria and during the lockdown.

There's just not enough education around the fragility of environments and why they need to be respected, so people build (badly), erosion occurs, the whole area gets pretty messed up and we end up losing way more.
Too many have a bad etiquette with Strava and youtube these days, the real fight now is just to be able to keep on riding in the local bush.Unsanctioned trails in Brisbane have always been the best to ride. If there were none being built BCC would’ve put 8km of fire road around cootha and called it a day.
