Pumpin'
Having swapped inner Melbourne living for a tree-change back in the motherland (SE Qld), thought I'd better get my backside into gear & make a start on my home pump track. Thankfully being on 8ha I'm not short of space, but to start out with I'll be working with a 50m x 15m area. Having built 5 pump tracks in & around Melbourne over the 16yrs I was there, it's so refreshing knowing I'll be able to go to town on this sucker without annoying Parks Vic nor having to contend with run-of-the-mill knuckleheads. When I'm not riding Noosa, Gymp-town or Garapine (5min from my place), I plan to be turning laps on this puppy.
Nice light & gritty clay blend soil so I won't be capping the surface. Little bit of excavating to be done in order to amend the slope at the one end, which will all be turned back in to the rollers & tabletops that run down the straight line. Can't wait to see how this all evolves over the next 12mths.
