Great to catch up.. and SIL... never would have expected you to step out of that car !! 
Next time someone is out there, they should block off the run in to the woodwork that was destroyed at the bottom section of Crank It.. : )

Crank It to the Right
NB: Riding from Boronia Road @ 9am Thursday if anyone is interested.
Crank It to the Right has now been vacuumed. The bit halfway down is fixed with a new line (2 options). Didn't have a bike there to ride it, but it will work.Great to catch up.. and SIL... never would have expected you to step out of that car !!

Met the guys doing up Snakes and Ladders and they are keen to get things up and running on the Downhill side.
Maybe I started something with Crank It. Catch you next time. Bob
Yep everything is riding well. A little warm though, with not much airflow.

Crank it rocks, which is your preferred line at the split bob? Left or right?

Crank It
Maybe any downhill in future needs to be Rock & Dirt only to stop the Chainsaw Massacre.
I'm one eyed, as Crank It Right is the one I cleaned up. I just put the sign up for Crank It left to keep it uniform. Someone else has cleaned that up.

Boronia Rd is the best start for XC as the track is just there. Thru gate to T Junction right for 40 metres on right orange tape 6km XC loop.
Downhill thru gate left up hill then right to clearing, choose a track and explore. Be careful on downhill as it is still a long way to go for fix up.
More XC all through there and south of Peter Meadows Rd is Bendi Trail.

Was down at 7am. for a little "Crank it" trail loving. No major changes just trying to make it a little quicker/smoother.
The little hump before the trail gets crossed by the fire trail now has a little transition so you can hit it with speed and pop off it or roll over it if your not feeling like air.
Were the trail splits into crank it right and crank it left I have built the little hump into a small jump, just a little lip and again some transition,
I have built the back up with rocks so you can again roll over it if not into jumps.
I popped of it and got a little air but it speared me into the big rock in the end of the berm there.
Hope no one minds but to keep the flow I have moved the big rock and the berm about 1 foot back and again gave it a little more shape to keep the speed and flow.
Berm after that also got a little shaping.
Last thing I did was clear a path so you could jump over the big rock that is leaning agains the tree after the last berm.
There is a burnt out stump after it but I have also cleared out the landing so the line is pretty straight and misses "stumpy the wheel breaker".
I really want to build these berms up to a height that could be railed and really speed things up. might need a few more wheel barrows of land fill though.
Enjoy!
