Authorities are on the lookout for a brazen biker who likes to harass horse riders.
Twice in the past month, a teen on a sport motorcycle has confronted equestrian trail riders in Copper Canyon and revved his engine in an attempt to scare their horses and throw the rider, according to town officials.
Motorcycles are not allowed on the trails, which are located on Army Corps of Engineers land.
The first incident was reported at the end of January. The second incident occurred on Feb. 3rd around 3:00 p.m. on the trail just east of Chinn Chapel Road.
The "crotch rocket" type sports bike is painted yellow and purple or dark blue. The suspect is described as a slim male between 14-16 years old and around 5' 6" tall. He wore a dark helmet with a full mask so his face was not visible. Witnesses said that his helmet, clothes and bike appeared new.
Anyone with information about the incidents should call Copper Canyon Mayor Sue Tejml at 940-241-2216 or e-mail her at suecoppercanyon@aol.com.

You know, it might make more sense if he buzzed the engine at people/horses leaving behind "deposits" in the trail, but as described here he's just a douchebag.
