My buddies and I went riding tonight, about 30 miles round trip. We didn't notice a new cut small tree (appr. 1 inch diameter pointed towards trail) on our way out. On our way back (the same trail), my friend ran off the trail a little and the tree went up his helmet, and into his forehead. He's in a business that I cannot disclose.....so we couldn't take him to the ER. We had to glue the cut on his forehead shut. His helmet took a bad shot. An inch lower and it would have been his eye or nasal cavity. Please ride trails one way with your eyes open, and ride it slowly, there are alot of mean people out there. Especially if you haven't ridden the trail lately. We have an idea this was planned. It was pretty obvious. There was a tree laid across the path in one area, and then that branch was pointed at the path.......I just urge everybody to be extremely careful
