Hey everyone,
I have been riding out at Castle Hill / Blackstone / Whatever you want to call it for a fair while now. I love all the tracks out there and it is a great place to ride.
In my time out there I have been eying off a line using the current "Double or nothing" (I think) track that has the larger road gap. I absolutely love the top half of this track and feel like a second choice of ending could only make it better... Basically it would be built turning off after the speed gap between the two trees heading into the big road gap and running to the right of the main line. By building another Road Gap and running an extended flat S-bend through the trees on the highway side of the access road to a fairly biggish blind hip jump using the existing ridge down that way. The trail end would end up down near the bigger of the two doubles on the flat side next to the highway.
My idea for this section is to make it pretty fast and challenging, I guess the hip jump ends up being around the 30 or so ft mark although it will be completely blind and kick you pretty high... This extra line would not interfere with any other lines that have been built in that area.
Does anyone have any problems with me taking a shovel to this area?
Trying to work out who's track this actually is before I go creating lines from their work. I want to make sure they are ok with it before I get too excited.
Let me know hey...
