SxS getting public lands closed

once the 1-year closure is complete, I hope they ban SxS permanently.

I lost count of the number of conversations I've had with the rangers in Moab about the SxS mentality.
I've had a couple of rangers ride along with me during EJS over the years, had to correct them on the tracks they see as Jeep tracks off the trails as either motorcycle or SxS (majority were SxS)

While there are dumb ass Jeep owners who feel the need to break new trails, I think the most drastic change of destruction to trails and the surrounding areas can be attributed to the SxS

There has been and always will be dumbass Jeepers who will fuck things up BUT, they have been far fewer in numbers and getting smaller than the swarm of SxS out there and growing that are really fucking things up.
 
I believe in the 80/20 rule. In sales, 80% of sales are made by 20% of the agents. CPAs, Attorneys same. 20% make 80% of the money.
I think it applies here. 80% of Jeepers respect the land and tread lightly. 20% are idiots. Its the opposite in the SxS world. 20% are ok, 80% are complete assholes and destroy everything in their path.
 
I have yet to come across a SxS driver that actually followed the rules and stayed on trail and, even more so… dirt bikers and coming from that sport as well as jeeping, really pisses me off. The SxS community is destroying the trails and combined with the dirt bikes, it’s a 1-2 punch that will kill it for good.
