Title: Vandalism Yarra State Forest Post by: Matthew L on August 11, 2011, 09,45:52 AM I saw an article on tonights ABC 7pm news (11-8-2011) about repeated vandalism at visitor facilities in the Yarra State Forest.
A photo of a helmetless guy on a trail bike was released as well as footage of the damaged area plus interviews with parks staff and a wilderness society guy. It appears that a hidden surveillance camera was used to capture his image. (Think about that before you go around locked gates on your registered bikes.) What a great way these idiots are going about making trail riders seem even more bogan, irresponsible and careless to the people who have the power to lock us out and others who just want us locked out. Remember people have a tendency to throw all greenies in the same basket, well they do the same.
