Lawrence Gale: Freedom of the 'wreck path'

Stop complaining! Summit County has one of the brightest and greatest recpath networks in the world, i.e. no internal combustion engine vehicles allowed. Human power rules; human poor-attitude sucks.

While longboarders seem to swerve the full width of "the path," (and it's fun to pretend to harpoon them), let 'em roll!

While gaper complaints seem to insult rocket-fast road cyclists, let 'em ride! Tourists, please look and listen, because us hyper-sonic road cyclists like to test our mettle, mind, and VO2-Max at 10,000 feet above sea level.

The wreck-path is there so all human-powered transport remains immune from public roads and being run-over and crushed from either (1) Rolls Royce Super-Turbos, or, on the other extreme: (2) a certain 1976 VW Bus with the "pilot" driving with his elbows while lighting up.

Peace, Bro, peace!
