If anyone does or knows someone who snowmobiles on the Greenway, can you try to show some respect to other users? I'm not saying that all snowmobilers are hooligans, and it may just be one idiot who's out there all over the place, but seriously, I'm not laying down tree trunks on the snowmobile trail, so why do some people feel the need to mess up the ski trail (the grooming of which was paid for by the residents of both cities)? Why do some people need to drag snow into the path when it's been plowed?
I'm not against snowmobiles. I know everyone enjoys winter in a different way, and I'm even HAPPY that the trail is there so we can use it in the race course, but please show some respect.
Meanwhile, I need to go back out and move some Bikecicle trail sections because some idiot went through and messed up the snow. Not a huge deal, but since I wanted to have the race course open, rideable, and being ridden by people to wear it in the week before the race, this sort of thing makes me not want to make the effort.
Last mini-rant: So what's the deal with plowing the Greenway path up to the access points and then leaving a pile of snow you have to climb over? Doesn't that sort of defeat the purpose? It's like the Washington Street underpass sidewalk staying unplowed for days after a snowfall--that's how people get back and forth past the stupid trainyard, do you think everyone who walks in the winter is young and ready to trudge through drifts of snow at a moment's notice?
