Because the Forrestry are extremely strict in that area. Especially after some well know riders ruined the Triscombe area of riding by uplifting with a quad.

triscombe isn't ruined by any means but the relationship the local riders had with the forestry is a little shaky thanks to some uplifting with a quad bike going on in the forest. there were some senior forestry officials there that day for something unrelated who after seeing this told the local forestry guys to remove anything built. large amounts of jumps,berms and drops were destroyed the next day with notices posted to not rebuild them or they would be removed.
I wasn't there that day but as I understand it a certain iron-horse sponsored rider might have been involved along with a few others. A mate of mine had to have some strong words with them again recently about how they were f'ing it up for everyone else.
