    Wow. That is just sick. I do not know how someone can put something up that they know could kill someone. That biker is lucky to have his head literally. Those bikers are in there full right to be there and these ass holes have to pull crap like this... I hope they find who did they and punish them.

    I recall back in the 80's, some guy put up a rope across P2P and took out a couple of riders. He got busted for it.

    A coworker of mine was killed by a cable stretched across a popular dirt bike area in Oklahoma. I hope this rider recovers and the culprit is charged with attempted murder.

    That is just wrong. This kind of stuff has happened in Divide (haymen area) before the fire broke out. Individuals would pull logs and dig holes in the trails...never seen a cable. Some individuals have been caught doing it too. I personally know someone that caught 2 people destroying our trails. This "someone" made them clean up two trails that day.

    Appears to be another victim of Eco-Terrorism or just plain dumb Jethro-Terrorism. Hope the rider recovers.
