I will add that many of these bicycle damaged trails were, even if put in by FS, were done so before mountain, multi-speed bikes came into vogue. And motorcycle use was prohibited at that time for RC's very point. But dice mt bikes are not "motorized" they slipped under the radar.
So there IS an easy solution with precedent. Restrict mountain bikes to those places and trails where they cannot cause damage, or as suggested, to new trails designed for them.
Of course the biking " environmentalist" elite, the so called "greens" will have a chit fit for obvious reasons, while hikers and horsemen wil love it. Ironic, no?
