OK, what the heck is a "motorcycle trail dozer"? Found it via google, never heard of it until tonight. I like the sound of it, anything that opens more singletrack trails is a good deal imo. Doze away.

Article says "can also be controlled remotely for rugged terrain where a human rider can't go". Heh heh, we'll see about that.  :evil

The mystic district of the forest service has one, and one that is for doing atv trails. Pretty sweet stuff!
