The government allows limited restoration. Yes I have seen coal mines restored to grassy knolls, but there are ghost towns in the East created from industries that vanished. There is housing out...

Probably for the better. Politics ruins everything . I had really hoped the common love of moto would allow for more in-depth conversions without the dumb assumptions and attacks that people make in the real world And to be able to really learn from each other .
