nonky Posted March 11, 2015 Share Hi. Yea. Thats the guys from park run and thanks to them they are putting more down by the tree line. We are going to have more sand than what we know what to do with.That's great news...Please could the guys doing the work remove the large rocks, bricks etc before finishing the job?if someone on an MTB hits an unexpected brick at speed coming down there, it's going to HURT / INJURE.

Samurai Pizza Cat Posted March 11, 2015 Share Teusdays and Thursdays I'll have my crew on the line. Just need some ideas on what to do otherwise I'll just rebuild what was there before the rains?Can we add some speed to this line? The corners were fairly awkward the first time around. Maybe get the guys from Trailhead involved in the planning. Or anybody who knows something about flow.We need tighter bermed corners that we can pump. At the moment you have to pedal the corners...not cool. Bumps at the entry and exit (of the corners) is essential, otherwise we'll have to rebuild this line again next year. Thanks again to everybody for doing this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to have more sand than what we know what to do with.We can build a river / stream gap at the top. ( Between the switchback and the tree line.)

Pieter1 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Yea I was thinking of building bumps to try and divert the water. Sure thing! Sean helped last time we built it, will get him involved again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidewinder. Posted March 11, 2015 Share We can build a river / stream gap at the top. ( Between the switchback and the tree line.) There was/is a little on there already-alongside the pallet bridge but a bigger one would rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulst12 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Just a little request please. If you are going to fix it, please widen the bridge 2/3 way down. Riding down there and saw a relatively new mtb'er slip off the side as 3 slats just became to narrow for her. Also maybe have up upward bridge and downward. Would help if walkers etc are close you can just detour and avoid some conflict? I know there is another bridge on the winding section, however on the straight downhill people come onto that one small bridge at pace and thats where all the problems start.

Suppose we should start being nicer to mountain joggers now...I have NO ISSUE with the mtn yoggers in Delta or along the Spruit - in the EARLY mornings the yoggers and dog walkers are very friendly.
