What time does it open? I'd like to take my 5-yr old tomorrow to let him try out the kid course, looks like a world of fun.

[swich]

hey CubeD. what time we starting Saturday weather permitting?

[Imploder]

I was there this Sat with my 5-year old. He absolutely loved it. With all the rain it's become very overgrown. I'm keen to assist if you need more hands.

So the rain kept me away last week. Gonna take next week off and I'll come on Monday and/or Wednesday to ride the track with Christian. Playing golf on Tuesday and Thursday otherwise I would have been there everyday to play around.

Tried out the pump track today wit my 2 y/o. It was my first time ever. I couldn't believe how much speed you could build up by just pumping, I almost overshot the berm a couple times. Christian loved it too. Had to drag him out by his feet.

 

Got a 24" GT speed series and it was awesome. I'll definitely be back.

[CubeD]

Did you see my 24" Speed series parked there? Good taste my man!

I'm so glad you guys enjoyed it - we had to build the berms bigger on the first track because it pumps so fast! You can go over the bottom berm and transition into the next track too.

 

I'll be there this week to plan the next phase. Next week I will be there most days to get stuck in.

 

I'm trying to come up with a track that's a blend of pump, xc and jumps next, this will be the longest track and will be geared to most skill levels.

 

Thanks again for trying it out, so glad you had a good time. Its a nice setup for family hey?

It was a lot of fun. Still need to learn how to jump but my confidence was increasing every time I went around.

 

The setup is really family friendly. Think I'm gonna have to get Christian some pads though as he was just gunning it and bailed a few times. It was a crazy bath session tonight with the roastie covered knees.

 

I'm at home this week so we'll be back Wednesday or Friday.

[CubeD]

I find my Speed Series very twitchy compared to my Deity Cryptkeeper 26" DJ bike, you'll find it much easier. The GT is so direct, point and shoot kind of geometry.

 

Shame man! Speak to Chris from Strider - he does kiddies pads.

 

Hopefully catch you later in the week!

going to pull through on Sunday to have a look and ride the pump a bit. dragging a mate of mine that wants to get into bmxing 

[Tayyib]

How's this project coming along?

[Dewald3]

went past the Morning Hill country club to check out the pump track and was told by the owner of the coffee shop that they demolished the whole track because the guy that started to build the track just moved because of family issues, pretty sad was keen to start riding there...
