People are stringing piano wire!
man, if someone doesn't like the fact that ur riding ur quad somwhere, put up a fence, call the cops, but stringin up wire to kill people is on the verge of insanity. my friend's uncle was killed by that. he was riding in 4th gear on his own property a few days after a storm. the storm had downed a phone pole that had some steel wire on it. the wire was head level and sliced his head off. this isn't a story i made up, if u want to verify it i could even give u my friend's e-mail address so u can check for urself. piano wire is over the top, try stringing some thick cable by their driveway, u wont be killin them, jus messin up their cars.

This stuff sounds crazy. I've never heard of this kind of thing before. A little bit of torn up soil and noise is nothing worth cutting someones head off for. I like the idea of putting on camo to stop the bas***ds. I wouldn't even consider burning their mobile home to be an extreme, I would say it needed to be done to get rid of the wackos. When someone is willing to seriously hurt or kill someone over people enjoying themselves, they need to be stopped.

BSA... couldn't have said it better. If all people, who ride, were as responsible and mature as BSA we wouldn't be having this disscusion (there would be no problem). There wouldn't be any piano wires or nails trying to stop the irresponsible riders. Land owners would welome riders on their property. And it's not just private land owners who will prevent access to property. We've had public land closed to access here in Idaho because of idiot riders who only think of the ride they're on at the time and not future access to the land. I don't like pointing fingers at who's causing this to happen so I'm going to leave it at that. Please listen to what BSA is saying!

This is a serious problem. Sure, if they're mad about people tearin up their property, they could tell the police, but tryin to cut off their heads with piano wire? That's just insane. I would advise to stay away from the local riding areas. Ride somewhere else like the sand dunes. People can't string up piano wire there.

(no they weren't in it, we waited till they left for the week) Sounds harsh but it may have saved someones life. Needless to say, they sold their newly purchased property and we never had a problem since. Screwed up thing was, they were stringing it up on National forest property!!!! Dumb @ss city slickers

I think it's funny that you say Canada has limitations on everything. We are not complaining about piano wire and boards with nails in them on any of our great plentiful trails. I know you were just joking, but just wanted to tell you.

If someone put a wire up where I ride, they'd have alot more to worry about than some atv tracks in the dirt.
