not really, there are a few decent things and some dj's in the colins creek trail network, but other then that not a whole lot, the university is decent for street spots though, and the skatepark is pretty brutal.

Not much here, it's best if you're a street rider or trials rider. The Queen's campus is definitely where I ride most of the time.

I just got back from my cottage which is about 45mins out of Kingston on the 15. My drop has a brand new landing which is much bigger and is almost done, I rebuilt my step up step down after a tree fell on it over the winter, now i need to rebuild the jump on to it and the landing. The big new is on the dirt jump side of things. I have built to new lines, one is dj into a step up, into a drop into a dirt spine, into a 10 by 10 bowl which at the moment has 3 foot high sides, the spine is about 4 and a half feet tall. You can also do this line backwards with a drop into the bowl over the spine onto a 4 by 8 wall that you can stall on. The other line is hitting the same dj as the first line but then going to the set of 2 other djs that I want to big pretty big, big enough so that I can learn NFC's on. One is going to have to be slightly hipped and one that well be maybe 5 feet tall. I haven't ridden Djs much so any help would be appreaceated. Also if anyone wants to ride my trails you are welcome to as long as you help build. Thanks for any feedback.

Needs 5-6ft high lip dirt jumps, other than that it isn't bad.

Ya, the only problem is the dirt is super rocky so its a bitch to dig in. This is what I have accomplished in two weekends of digging by my self, but the plan is to make the dirt jumps around 4- 4 and half feet tall since I haven't really hit actual dirt jumps before. The bowl is also going to have about 4 foot walls all around, and everything will be smoothed out nice. If anyone wants to help dig or has suggestions let me know.
