If I want to hear noise, I'll go to Sturgis, SD and listen to the Angels
rev their hogs, or sit on the overpass at the Hollywood & Pasadena freeways
at rush hour.  However, *I* go to public forests to hear ... nothing.
That's the way it should be.  Our local mountain parks allow *no* vehicles
with the exception of wheelchairs (that includes no mountain bikes).

Perhaps you should redefine your idea of fun.  BTW, are you aware
of how many people are now disabled due to ATVs?
