Mountain biker catches trail saboteurs red handed.
Mountain biker catches trail saboteurs red handed.

Mountain biker Nathan managed to catch a group of individuals in the act of sabotaging a trail with sticks and obstacles, capturing the incident on camera.

Based on Nathan’s description, an unknown individual had been damaging the trail in question every day. When he realized that the trail was yet to be touched while he was out mountain biking, he decided to hang around and see if he could catch the saboteurs in the act.

The two saboteurs claim to live in the area, though they don’t appear to own the land as they ask if the biker has permission from the land owner. The trail has clearly existed for a period and Nathan states that he wasn’t the one who built it, but it’s not clear if this trail is open to mountain bikers or not.

The exact laws on the matter depend on where exactly this was shot. No matter the case, placing sticks and obstacles on a trail known to frequently see mountain bikers is a dangerous and incredibly irresponsible way to handle such a situation. These people should have known better.
