Cheers Jake. Great to hear you're using it! Big Grin We want to do the next track along; that's a good run too and longer. Hope we can get some riders along!

Just posted this on the FoBM Facebook page:

Next Bracken clearing date Tuesday Aug 16th
Can we meet 6:45PM Tuesday Aug 16th next week, weather permitting, at the lay-by on Glovershaw Rd near the quarry?
We aim to tackle the track that drops off to the west from the hawthorn tree on the Crook Farm Rd. This is just south of the track we did a few weeks ago. It is longer than that one and evenings are shorter, so I hope we can get a good turnout to get it done.

Hand clearing will be important as the new strimmer machine is rather feeble.
The lightly armed are essential to clear the cuttings away for the second pass. Do bring some gloves.
We will need to clear the path to about 1m either side; pile & compost the cuttings from the denser areas, then cut the stubble and new/low growth to ground level. The path surface should be clear and visible for users.

Hope to see you there!

David
