Will The Forest Service FIne Me For This?

I know that when camping in Grizz country forest service rangers can fine you for leaving food out in a campground unattended but what if you led the bear to the food. My friend and I are building fence on a game range in Northern Montana and rather than leaving our house at 4 AM to work we are camping in a nearby forest service campground. There are posted signs that it is in grizzly country and we did find some nearby tracks. Our plan is to stache a large bag of candy bars on some nearby private land (not forest service jurisdiction) and draw a map from the campground to where the candy is hidden. We will put a candy bar on a bicycle. We will hide it far enough away that the bear wont want to walk there but ride the bike instead. We are pretty sure it will work since a bear stole our company 4 wheeler and drove it around for a while and left us with little gas. We are just worried about a potential fine. Anyone else have any experience with this?

If you need acid to make bears ride bikes and 4 wheelers you need to get closer to nature. On a side note I am going to be sure and take the keys out our skidsteer so no bears steal it!

reading that made me think I must have accidentally eaten something a little funny tonight, then i thought it might just be because it's almost 5 AM where i live, then i realized it was because i was on a freeskiing forum, and loads of freeskiers are good at pulling of wry humour on the internet.

Alright, for all you scholars out there saying his plan wont work, im here to disprove you. Whilst i remain skeptical about the claim that a bear was riding an atv (theory about apposable thumbs has great roots in fact), there is no reason why a bear couldnt ride a bike. Among other reasons proving my statements to be correct, here is a gnar pic proving it!!! And there's an angry asian dude chasin him, what could be more badass?!?!Click for larger imagehim,

SPARKNOTES: haters, get pwned by this insanely undeniably unphotoshopped proof. touche!

Thanks dude but this is 100% cereal. I am heading out at 4AM tomorrow. It turns out were not camping out but we still might lure a bear to ride a bike.

Just an update:

After we befriended a griz by giving him candy bars and a tent to take the ladies home to he started talking to us. We got to the point where we would walk with him back to these beaver ponds and he would jump in and throw fish onto the banks for us. Then we would all go back to camp and cook them together.
