Monmouth, ME - July 31, 2014 - 8 miles

    Short ride today around favorite routes.  Stopped by a new kiosk put up by a local conservation group, but was dismayed to learn that mountain bikes were prohibited from using their trails.  Why do so many conservation groups ban mountain bikes?  It seems they should welcome human powered, green means of transport.  Isn't it less green to drive to a conservation area and walk around, than to bike to the same area and bike around?
