    Does that single strand fence surround the entire 320 acres?

    It did surround the 320 when it was put up in the 1950's. It still is there but not always visible due to windfall knocking it down. I keep the spots that are near neighbors trails up and well marked. Where these characters entered my land they had to cross 3 other private parcels. It is a logging road from may of 1988 that I have blocked with a berm, downed logs, the wire and signs.

    320 acres, where is the race track and why weren't we invited?

    Just have a seizure. I did and everyone invited me over. Unfortunately, most were too far away. Fortunately, one is close.

    You and anyone else that are interested in running on 4 miles of 2 track and 1/2 mile under an electrical line easement are welcome to visit. There is a 1/4 mile clay go cart track 6-7 miles away and the Sno-Drift Rally's closest corner is 17 miles away. We have fun up there.

    That went a lot better for you than it would've gone if it was me. At least the kids were nervous- they were doing something wrong and they knew it, and were sorry about it. If they were cocky as hell, then you'd have a real problem. That's when we'd start talking about waving boomsticks around

    I live a few minutes from an indian reserve. They have the right policy, and attitude, IMO. The land belongs to everybody. Nobody is denied access, and it works. I ride a fair bit of single track there. Nobody looks twice at you when you pass through their property, and people don't abuse it.

    Dude, if a car broke down on Indian territory in Onondaga county, the next day there was a charred ring where the car used to be. Some who were stranded never made it out. I'd say different reservations are different.

    I think the Iroquois Nation Indians are still mad about their treaties not being respected and not getting a cut of Thruway tolls, and man are they pissed that Gov. Cuomo wants to collect tax on the smokes they sell to non-Indians, but they've calmed down a lot since the casinos opened.
