Jeez it's difficult to get good help these days. To get one of the lads to help trackbuild two deals were tabled:
    (1) I ride Deliverance no dabs then he builds 5 metres of track or....
    (2) Everyone adds a metre of track for each dab down Deliverance :crazy: .
Given that I ain't never seen me Deliverance and would probably walk all of it I've opted for dealio 1. Once he sees the Wainui trail I'm sure he'll be hookedburger.....

I actually really enjoyed the build - very satisfying to see the results of a couple or so hours of work. Still reckon you need a name for the trail though Tryfan...

trails earn names during the build
It's a cardinal sin to name trails before they are built

Slack boy - such a comment warrants a demonstration!

"You dig the trail like this for a few hours men and yes, ahem, let me think... the trail should be called - ########!!

Buzzing

No dig tuesday night though as I broke my body in celebration on saturday arvo with a big jump in a cross wind up at Maidstone.

BAD landing..

Just in case it is not..

Dig - Sat morning 9am, bring friends, sunblock and some good jokes.

I have a wrist in plaster (stink!) so little Mat and I will be on the back end pushing rakes and throwing milkworms at anyone caught slacking!

I started a smart arsed reply to this when you posted to ask if your bike was ok, but better judgement prevailed. Rode the trail x2 for the first time last night :)

Planning to be there Saturday, although 0900 arrival is optimistic.....
