who's liable?

MXer for not checking he could ride there?

FC for not putting up signs? (MXer thought he could ride there)

FC for not stopping them? (MXer was witnessed by ranger who did nothing)

or other answer?

I had a minor bump yesterday with a MXer, could have been far worse,

"or other answer?"

MXer for hitting you?

the other factors of course still not irrelavant

If it was his fault then him. Also penalty for being in the wrong place and a kick up the behind for forestry for not stopping him

Did he have a bell or shout strava?

The bane of the FoD.
Assuming you have the rider he is , otherwise he is. FC don't allow him to be there and bylaws prohibit it. He is breking the law. doubt anything will happen. I suppose a Yank would sue FC but then they will tighten up on riding anywhere they say is not allowed eg out of Sallow Vallets in FoD.
Tell police if you know who he is.

This doesn't sound sensible from a continuing MTB access point of view...
