Uhhhhh..... really?
1. I would like to see that report. I would find it astounding as to how they investigated and concluded that as the culprit. I guess a magnesium crank arm striking a rock is possible.
2. Does that mean that the Lower Rock Creek Trail is closed due to fire damage?
Sheesh! Mountain bikes now start fires. Our world is going up in flames...
Wow, really? I'm almost equally amazed that a pedal strike could ignite a wildfire as I am that their investigation tools/processes are accurate enough to deduce that that was the cause.
Quite often, when I tee off with my titanium soled driver, it makes sparks on the grains of sand on the teebox. I am not making this up. I suppose that's next.
There was a fire a couple of years ago blamed on a golfer striking a rock. While possible, my vote was for some fat dude dropping his cigar in the wrong spot.
