nice work guys,
How does this stack up with Menai for walk back up and technical difficulty/range of stuff.

maybe not complete lines ... but there are some monster rock/cliff drops out there. Wouldn't take much digging to compete with menai or hucksford ... I reckon you have more space out your way.

I think we have dug enough lines for a while. Just need to look after the tracks we have and keep the place clean. I think if we could organise a couple of trail work days where the regulars bring some tools and work on one line each time.
The difference with Menai is they have what I would consider the most dedicated builders I have seen. There is 3 or 4 guys who work on the tracks there every week working on the tracks before and sometimes even after riding. It's the only way you will get trails of that calibre.
I love riding Menai as it is just so smooth and the quality of the jumps, drops and "shore" are second to none that I have ridden.

i like the way menai has signs everywhere and the little hut for all the tools we couldnt have that up there due to so many dickheads up there i think we woulod have to purchase a new shovel everytime we would go up there to maintain

See-saw disappeared around a year ago, replaced with just the down ramp... I never had issues with it, but it wasnt the most reliable thing in terms of coming down straight.

Yeah agree ... the menai boys are almost as busy as the DJ crew "at the place that can't be named" ... Redders.
BTW, I didn't mean cut more trails ... I meant enhance upon current ones ... anyway, apologies, easy for me to write ... I'll turn up and do some work one day I promise.

Agreed! Parenthood, mortgage, job, the lack of ability to "bounce", sense of falibility, fading (but not yet totally vanished!) sense of invincibility.....it all adds up!

I keep most of my tools out there but they are cheap crap so I don't lose good tools. I also have a wheelbarrow stashed there. Anyone can use them as long as they but them back where they found them. The pallets that were at the very bottom of the "step up" run were there last I saw but that was a while ago. I never bothered to go past the small rock double after the step up after someone ripped the lander for the drop apart. Was a fun drop. Matt's track is hidden off the side of "snakes and ladders". Very steep, but with some work will be good fun.
