is the cutback on mountain biking a boomer opp?

I'll be very transparent I am not an avid mountain biker nor super outdoorsman. But I read this article and I get the sense that behind a lot of the "eco protection" lingo from this women, and likely the elderly population who back this, is they just don't like mountain biking and want it cut back because its "loud and crazy" or something like that. which is a shame. the author even points out that their are already trails that ban cyclist leaving very limited opportunities but then just basically says "thats the point."

this whole thing smells like a boomer opp to cut back on activities they deem obstructive to their specific lifestyle. with no regard for the rest of the population. but as this population of boulder ages we might see more of this sadly. I could be entirely misreading everything here but this is my take.
