Pieter1 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Posted January 30, 2015 Haha Pieter. I only saw this now after chatting to you this morning. Great minds We will do something...Hahaha! I thought you saw this...
Pieter1 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Posted January 30, 2015 I think we need to redesign the whole line. It was orginally build for trail runners ( or "joggers" if you are from CT), and the radiuses of most of those corners are way to big. This makes it quite awkward to ride fast. You have to pedal too often in that line to make it fun. Given the gradient it should be a pump line. I think we need to get the Spruit fairy involved and design a "Bundaburg like" line...Berms, jumps and more jumps.Planning for water drainage would also be cool : humps before and after the berms. And finally: We'll probably have to import soil with a higher clay content. If anybody are building at present and would like to donate some.... I'll be there to help if you are putting a crew together.Spruit fairy is busy at the trail head atm. I'll organise all the soil. We should start work in about 3 weeks.
Nofearnofun Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 I think the whole line should be paved and called a rock garden...
V12man Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Thanks V12 we might have to use it.Just let me know where and when to drop it off - note - it's a donation and I don't want it back....

RockCoach Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Hilton loves the Spruit. You kinda have to remind him that we aren't really allowed to build whatever we want here
Pieter1 Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 Howzit guys. Hope you are doing well. My plan for sand fell through. Any idea where I can get some propper sand? I have a truck and guys just no clue where to get.
