World Enviros or tree huggers?

I'm curious if other countries have the same problems with these people shutting down riding in there country?

I know the U.S. and England have these issues, but what other countries do?

Same in Australia. Government always putting up signs and closing off public access. To be honest I think pretty much everything we ride that isn't a gazetted road, or private property is classified illegal, namely the good single tracks.

same here in Belgium
nothing is allowed, hardly any tracks in the immediate area

Don't have that problem here. So long as you are respectful you can ride 80% of the country as it is crown land, obviously no riding on private farms or game reserves without permission. The overgrazing of crown land causes more damage than us bikers

Thats how it used to be here Matt. Then they made crown land state forests/plantation which you can kind of get away with being respectful etc but still legally not meant to leave the gazetted roads. Then national parks and reserves are another story. Seems they want to keep pushing us out and making more national parks though. Environmental Protection Agency want to keep everyone out incase if we wreck it.
