There were in excess of 2000 quads and side by sides riding that day. A month later i still could not use that road with my 4x4 truck to get to my fields cause of the deep ruts and the fence to fence mud holes that were created that day. I had in the end the county send a grader to fix it cause the rally organizers basicly gave me the finger when i complained.
The path of destruction that was made trough the bush by all these morons can prob still be seen from outerspace today.
I could not care less if these ATV's get outlawed and sent to the smelters.

It's a county road allowance. You don't own it or have the right to it any more than anyone else. Would you have been okay with it if it was 2000 4 x 4 trucks driving on it that day? Would the destruction of been any less? Furthermore, if you run up and down a county road and put ruts in it, are you going to foot the bill to fix it, or is that the county's responsibility to maintain it. I'm sure you'd pay for a grader to go out there on your own dime to maintain the county road. Yah sure. You first state that the county road was rutted up, then talk about the path of destruction made through the bush. If you think quad cause damage, then lead by example and get rid of your 4 x 4 truck because you shouldn't be driving in wet conditions anyway, right? You don't own the bush or county roads more than anyone else.
