I've cut a lot of trees over the years with my "sawvivor", which fits in my camelbak. I've ridden a number of trails lately which are off-limits to dirtbikes and none of them had trees on them. 401 had a ton of downed trees at the start of the summer which were cleared off thanks to mountain bikers. I have YET to see a dirtbiker build or fix a trail, that seems to be the responsibility of mountain bikers. Perhaps if mountain bikers didn't have to spend so much time fixing moto-destroyed trails, mountain bikers would have plenty of time to cut out trees as well.

I see lots of fallen trees cut out of the way. I have YET to see a mountain biker carrying a chain saw to do that. You do realize it is the dirt bikers who clear these trails right ?
