Many moons ago when i was still into DH i remember walking down this track to check it out. It was in quiet a state, all the wood features rotten, trees across it everywhere ect.
Good to see its getting some lovin' Good stuff guys.

I am now without a bike untill October.
Wouldnt mind actually jumping on the end of a shovel for a while again and getting out there.
Year 12 exams coming up might make it a struggle though

P.S - dean, do you still have that old giant frame of yours?

 

[Live2DieTrying]

The roadgap is rebuilt! Won't be settled in for a week or so yet, but it looks awesome.
I have smoothed out the hill really nice and built up the berm.
Jake did all the woodwork and rebuilt the drop and the lip on the roadgap.

I hope you guys like it!

Dan, yes I still have the frame. Message me.

Hey guys, I'd love to help out with trail building and meet a few peeps.
I've been super eager to ride lately so if you need a hand on a weekend or a riding companion I'd be more than keen to get involved with this trail!

think i met one of you guys down there last night on the intense SS, I will hopefully be heading down a bit while its still wet and getting the little set of jumps running nice and expanding on that little area down the bottom. thoughts?

I walk my dog around in there and noticed a couple of little trails around the creek that could be a lot of fun if fixed up. I should have a new bike within a week and I'd be keen to have a bit of a build!

that would be dean (live2dietrying), on the intense ss.
and those jumps have been 100% dug and maintained by dean, (intense ss), so best idea is to run it past him so that we dont go around upsetting people.

hope to see you out on the trail soon!

Came out to have a look at the trail today, very cool!

Big thanks to Dean for showing me the in's and out's of the trail and doing a couple runs with me.

That road gap is pretty cool, something to build up to for me.

Anyway, great trail and I hope to be frequenting it regularly so see you lads out there!

Cheers,

Is anyone riding/building this weekend? Keen on getting involved. Is the top of the track the best place to park?

Considering heading out there on sunday on the old shitter xc bike to have a bit of a play around in the area.
if im out that way i will pick up a shovel for an hour or two and have a bit of a play at the track depending on what needs doing, considering working on a new top section seeing as our old one is not in use anymore..

 

[Live2DieTrying]

I will be out there again this weekend at some point.
Koper - best place to park would be bottom of the track, you don't have to walk back uphill to your car this way!

 

[Live2DieTrying]

Did some more work to the track.
Fixed up the switchback at the bottom, now it's faster than ever and doesn't feel so awkward.
Also rebuilt the gap jump on the last half of the track. Rebuilt the lip, and made the landing a bit wider.
I will be doing a few more repairs over the next few weeks up the top on the berms and making the step up above the road gap a bit better.

 

[rider124]

anyone been out here recently?
whats the track like?

 

[Live2DieTrying]

I rode the track yesterday. It's going great. Get your new bike already and come ride!

How are Deans jumps going? bought me an stp and want to give some DJ's a go

 

[Live2DieTrying]

I'm working on the jumps atm.
I rebuilt the second one a bit longer so now it's a bit better.

And I'm working on a new third jump which will be much larger than the first 2.
