hey all i thought id post up what me and a few of my mates have been building in my backyard. we have aproximely 2 acres to build on all sloping gently downhill. basically the first trail were putting through will be the maintrail running through most of the land and in time we plan on have a few different trails running of the the maintrail.

the maintrail is divided into two sections the top half and the bottom half so far he have to tophalf completed for know until we start getting a bit bored with it and then it can be tinkered with. ive taken the photos in sequence (sorry for the bad photography on my behalf)

if u could leave a comment, compliment or criticism that would be great also if u think we should any thing in their id definetly like to hear some suggestions

Cheers Steve

Looks like a fun little track although the rocks will need to be bigger in the rock garden.
nice strong looking northshore as well.

cheers. the rocks for the pebble garden were basically what we had scattered over the paddock, so thought we might aswell use them up. we do have plans for a proper rock garden at some stage though.

cheers steve

Yeah kill it mang!

I noticed a nice bit of flex in the boards when they are wet, we can use that to our avantage but!

We may need to reinforce the timber booter's timber landing at the end, someones going to 'Case it and break it'!!

Can't wait the spin it up on the w'end!!!!

thanks for the responses guys. garreth get well soon mate ill give you a call tomorow. the timber slats for the sailor would have cost roughly around $70 i think, so it was a pretty cheap way of doing it. it also rides nice and smooth aswell ill get some action shots this weekend:)
