  1. Per small change:

    These trails are for dirt
    bikes and bikes only, no quads but those guys will try and go anywhere
    Hopefully these "turkey chutes" will help:

    What's the diff between motorbikes and quads trail-wise?

    Seems like quads would cut a wider track, but tear up the ground less....

    Actually, in the Pine Barrens both are equally devistating. The enduro
    guys have basically destroyed the Mount Misery trail in Brendan Byrne
    State Forest. A trail they are not even supposed to be near. What used
    to be rideable is now a sandy bottomless pit.

    In Kings Grant (my local trail), the quads were the original trail
    cutter. So now you have two deep ruts that make the trail.
    Fortunately, the police have kept them away and with some work we are
    filling in one track.

    First of all the area in question is open to all three, in different parts,
    and nothing will change that. Second dirt bikes and mountain bikes use
    about the same widith trail. A quad hittting single track will widen it in
    no time flat to 40+ inches. No comment on tearing up the ground, like I
    said this area is multi use and that is not going to change. But the stupid
    quads think they own everything, I've seen so much singles track turned into
    fricken roads by them going where they shouldn't. In this area, they are
    supposed to stay on the jeep roads and not go on the trails at all.
