.....I could care less how the people who don't clean the trail feel about how the person who does clean the trail cleans the trail.
Be careful with that train of thought, since I soon found that I had to change my cleaning tactics after I contacted our public works department. Upon learning some ordinance regulations that pertained to my cleaning efforts, I'm now able to avoid a few legal ramifications when cleaning our local public right of ways.
My new cleaning tactics are considerably slower than my previous ones, but I have gained an even more positive reaction with the public works department, as well as with the public in general.
