Expect around 10 extra legends at the next dig - the Bushlove Spartans will be in attendance to assist with the trail building efforts.

We will be swimming across the harbour to Eastbourne, then running up Wainui Hill with backpacks filled with bricks and ladies underwear as a warm up.
will slacky be at said arrival? I hear he is only one capable of swinging a grubber properly. And by properly I mean capable of building 50m of track by himself in 1 morning. Though the other 9 might like to try and prove me wrong :paranoid:
:hmmm: Geoffry :ib:

A challange to see who is the best track builder in Bushlove? One grubber, one minute, see who digs the most? :sneaky:

pretty busy digging in town once -twice a week.
have ridden out there once, nice trails :)
alas, crashed on sunday and munted hand so no digging for 10 days or so. :angry:
will visit for a dig some day, perhaps in summer, when we could wheel in the barbeque to the dig spot

Yo - What is the tool situation at Wainui. Will there be enough tools/work for everyone? I only have regular garden implements.

I will make sure I bring two massive tools: Tony Keith.... and my bobby.

Dave,

You only need ya bike. The technique is as follows:

Come to a stop and pedal stand, apply the front brake on full, pedal like made to wheel spin the back wheel while moving it from side to side. Once that section of track is benched to an acceptable standard release the front brake to move forward to the next section and repeat. :lol:

If you expect to meet road please fit a studded snow tyre before swimming across the harbour and running up the hill...

Also the true hard fella's suse fixies :p
