Yes, well as someone who walks it quite often, I have to be honest - the little jerks who ride their ATVs and motorcycles have taken over. Troop K needs to do something about them riding up and down the airline trail. I witnessed this young mother running from them with her infant held close as they were doing spin outs on the trail with their bikes. Very disrespectful kids in these parts. The police need to step it up and enforce the law.

How can we help to get/keep trails more horse friendly? Boonie, give us some numbers and names to contact. Besides that, I have to think that (most) ATVS and motorcycles operators are in no way horse friendly!

PS: We started in Hebron or Coventry (OK, I can't remember which!) and NEVER saw a single ATV rider or any motorized rider...BTW--there's NO motorcycle riding allowed, so lay off the bikers!!! and there is fresh water for your 4-legged pal too, so enjoy!!
