Blake G Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 These news stories are good at naming the OFSC trail locations, without mentioning that the trails are not yet open. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree TD. That said, until enforcement is stepped up it will get worse. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you can smell weed riding past riders pulled over trailside, smoking weed and drinking, especially at our NCDN speeds,  there's a problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobills Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Agreed keep this stuff off the trails. Wait until your done for the day. Keeps everyone safer. More enforcement needed. Always amazes me up there seeing garbage cans full of empties too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are inundated with new buildings going up all around them. I have heard Mrs. O saying how it really stunk when she delivered one particular time at least, but I never noticed it. But then a cpl weeks ago I was pulling in there, and as I went past the first facility, instantly as I passed, I could smell the place. In December, with winders up! As soon as I got passed tho, it went away.  But they say that it can get really bad - especially in the summer. One guy says he doesn't park in the garage anymore. Etc...  My customer is hoping to one day sell his building to one of them and move away, but ???? IDK what it would take to convert an older fab building to a grow house? It may make sense for them to just build new? IDK. I know they have a LOT of infrastructure inside the first building as I watched them just keep taking stuff inside time after time, and no more often than I was there too...  The others are around the corner and I have only driven past those recently for the first time. It's all new enough that it doesn't show up on the online maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't carry my own, so I rely on others to leave their Schidt anywhere I might need one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
