yeah 8am ish plan is to take up the slasher and clear some more gorse on the botom section round the berm we built last week and then probably go up and clear the up track to the top, wanting to go pretty hard out on it so you might want to grease the frame up hahahaha.
Plan over the next couple of weeks is to get a key and take the van up and clear the tuna trails and the gimp as well as the top of taniwha, just to make them ridable again, then i will get abck into the new trail R2

Good build this morning, got Taniwha (top section) cleared and i got Tuna's tail mowed down looks like it need some love but should be good to ride after next weekend we will get the Tail cleared up and get started on the gimp. This is of course if the weather is tihs during the week, we will push ride back a week.
PS DONT RIDE TUNA"S TAIL ITS COVERED IN THE GORSE AND BRANCHES ETC FROM CLEARING TODAY.

Mint ride today despite the rain last night, made the western hills tracks very slippery, as Sam found out, oh for a helmet cam. He got his drift on, crossed up at 90 deg to where he was travelling and managed to correct it before hitting the tree in front, just got home wet and muddy as Fark, now off to the movies.
Next week clearing Tuna's tail and Slashing the Gimp
