Would footage from airplanes or helicopters be better? Plenty of jets ruining the quiet now.
Jan 3, 2020 at 6:59 pm #3625432We should just allow mountain bikes on wilderness trails and get it over with.
NO DAMN WAY!
Too dangerous on anything other than very flat country.Cheers

Nick’s been right all along. Get rid of the roads, etc…
Jan 3, 2020 at 7:27 pm #3625440^^^ +1
yep, roads and trails. Those willing to bushwhack and use a compass can share the wilderness with the animals and the rest can stay in town. No bikes, no drones, no loud music.

It’s over 40 C right now – in the shade. In the sun it is much worse. Workshop has galvo walls and roof: both too hot to touch. Brain has shut down…
Yeah, dimly remember. :)Cheers

In that sort of country we do carry 40 m of light rope plus some string. Yes, we have had to use a ‘sling’ once or twice, to get a rope up. Great fun.Cheers
