Dah end.

What about someones business that they most likely worked hard to acquire, and have to pay for property repair cause your messing up a rail or wall there. Unless somebody owns the land their trails are on, then it doesn't really matter, yeah it sucks but its not yours to say someone else can't ride.

Big Ben:
if there was noone around, and you were careful and didnt fuck it up i dont see why its a problem having a ride of them.
obviously it would be less awkward if you knew the guys who made em, but you can make some inquiries and try to get in touch with the people who built them before you go down again.
i can understand that some people dont want anyone else having fun who didnt put the work in, but at the same time would you rather some other bmxers stumble upon your trails and be stoked on how good they are, or some mx riders tearing the place to bits?
respect works both ways

Eggit2:
Bens got it in perspective.

If you don't want people to ride your jumps, chain them up, and make sure they aren't visable on google maps.

It's not like we were being disrespectful in any way. I have been the "owner" of many jumps and I always welcome anyone with respect.

firebikesmullets:
i have to agree with the people who say it's a dick move to ride other peoples trails without knowing the locals or having their consent.

let's put this into perspective.......

Q: how many of you would be cool with a complete stranger picking up your bike(that you worked hard for and paid for with your own money) while you're not around and taking it for a joy ride without your knowledge or permission? it's ok though right? because they like your bike and are having fun on it. if your wheel is already a little bent then under rotating a bunch of 360's can't hurt because, hey, the wheel was like that when they found your bike.

A: absolutely none of you would be fine with someone treating your personal property like a cheap whore.

you guys should have respected the those guys' work and left a note or came back later to meet the locals before you took advantage of their hard work.
