So glad we have these days, really I am! Awesome work guys..

 

Mark, sorry I missed you, next time?

No worries I thought it might be a bit late when I posted.

Let me know if you plan to go again.

Ah, you know.. about 100m3, gone! No trail lining happening till new source can be found! I don't swear much, or at least used to..

I did the calcs on the way home...

 

100m3 is enough to cover 2,000 linear metres at a depth of 5cm. That means, given a trail width of 2m (conservative) it would have been enough to cover the entire snake trails top to bottom, as well as DH2. A full 1km. GONE.

I can help with that, I really am good at it.

Ex army, ex chef it's like a degree in the proper use of bad language.

Call me and I will gladly swear for you. Lots.

PPC's telephone number, anyone?

LOL. All it'd take is a handful of cement mixed in to the sand. Just a little bit. Nowhere near the amount we'd need if it were clay.

 

Plus, it IS kinda eco-friendly. Water runoff can be managed properly, no more erosion on the trail... LOL. A guy cna dream, can't he?

 

Ha ha, a handful to replace the loss of 100m3.. You've been drinking too much of that stuff.

 

SO Mayhem, what do we have planned for the Volunteer day? There is almost no point working on Snakes until we have material. I could scrape off about 1 ton left at the ex clay site but this would be better used on the last hairpin at Roots I think.
