I went to the Memorial Park last night to put up signs reminding MB riders
to yield right of way to the horses that will be using the trails this
weekend. When I arrived, the park was closed to thru traffic and the
public. I kindly asked the gentleman in charge to place the signage up for
me so that everyone using the trails this weekend might be safe. His
remarks were less than flattering, but what was most notable was the fact
that he informed me the trails are to be closed this weekend except for the
horses. Odd, the Parks Department never put up any advanced signage or
left any message on the recording to indicate this. Surely they wouldn't
just close them without telling any of the other users? Apparently that's
the case. Either way, please consider avoiding MP this weekend and ride at
the Ant Hills or somewhere else. It will save you a trip and the
harrassment. Better yet, join us at Double Lake tomorrow!
