We have been known to cause serious injuries to people that mess with our stash of tools!
In fact a few weeks back some mutorcss took nearly all of our tools from the new track starting by dazzas! They then buggered off and left them out in the skidder site! disrespectful little f#$kers! They all want new tracks but take our tools without permission and are too selfish to even put them back where they got them!

So how long 'til the new gummies track opens? Looks like there is one major berm left then it should be done.
...Does it have a name yet?

We might open the top section in a few weeks once we have done a few tidy up jobs but the bottom section wont be open for wat least a month. Still some major work to do down there...

Great news Ash - how much work to do on the lower section? Would a GC dig day with lots of help get it done?
I know you guys have been working hard up there and I am truly appreciative of your efforts

Whats the plan for double drop / hospital corner? Are you going to build it up more or flaten it out? That steeper line from above needs a bit of loving to line it up at the junction... Some of the rocks on the end of bridges are getting a bit viscious (yeah yeah all you moaners that hctib every time a pebble rolls over). If you walk up and look there are a few sharp edged mungrels sticking out!
Also have a look accross the road (straight accross the nana line bridge on hospital corner and back into the trees)... There is a mint bit of terrain to run a mean rocky exit line all the way out to the concrete bridge!

Plan is to rebuild the berm and (if we can) get a few power carriers up bridges with some clay to help stick some rocks togeather in a few holes. Bridges needs a good buff and well see what needs to be done when we get there. Its not too bad i thought. the Mrs rode it for the first time ever on sunday on her HT. Ill have alook at that high line and see what can be done.
Yea we have already scoped out a line accross there but where were allowed its way too steep and ends in a rather large cliff. The only way to come out is the old lower fenceline track and thats a big no-no.
