    Today I drove over my second trail I realize that we must provide a leval trail for the minorty (Bikers ,Runners and Walkers) But at he expense of the majorities cars. I have scraped my front end each and every time. It is a jolt no matter the speed. Is the idea to slow us down so the trail users (The minority) will have the right away. What a waste of money and no one seems to speak out. Robert H Bill
