Only 4weeks of competition left ladies, everything should be in place and organised just a case of digging

the snow a few weeks ago really halted any work for me

July would be good
because GCSEs and other exams really get in the way of june
then hopefully there will be a more level playing field in terms of the finished trails

After the easter holidays would be a good extension. Not much going on at our trails recently, the weather has been too good and too dry to waste it building Wink

July would be great, because as you may have noticed ive done nothing, because Its too dry to build right now in summer, so if it extended until like June/July, it will be great because at least I will get rain and be able to build.

Ahem, correction, to dry for you to waste it on building... lolWink

We've got about 2/3 of the track rideable now, Its currently raining a lot here so hopefully bedding in the new 'pussy route' around the first jump, and the rock garden area. I have a few pictures to put up soon so will post an update on the blog when I do. Currently there are two jumps that possibly need a little restoring and after them we just need to cut the track for another 300 odd yards to the bottom and to put in two berms a jump, and a hip on that! So we're doing pretty good at the moment, just need to sort us all getting up there at once! Check out the blog at the mo to see how we're going, I'm also currently working on a couple of the 'side on' images to go on it soon! Beer cheers olly

July will be good. I could at a push get the bottom section of my trail done within the four weeks. But that would involve camping on the hill from Friday night through to Sunday evening for four consecutive weekends.

No thanks.

I just got 10 more inches of snow. I also have nothing to strip the bark off the logs with, and I need a new saw chain. The ground need to thaw more too. No way I am going to be done in a month.
