david16v Posted January 31, 2012 Share I look foward to riding on these trails at the end of the year.As a plus I should be able to see a drastic change in the upkeep of all the trails/single tracks. All that I used to see were the `entry points` to some of the single tracks, which were also used as `downhill` bits with burms. So I used to laugh when I heard maintenance was getting done as 90% of the maintenance would be on the entrance to a trail (clay, etc for the burm) where the `downhill maintenance crew of Tokai` are mostly interested. I know this as most of the builds/maintenace days were scheduled on weekends when there were MTB races near or far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, will be great to have you back. Yes, you will enjoy riding your home trails again and you will indeed see much change, that sir is true. Ah yes, the laughter.. now that we are reflecting - I remember you, who had an issue with any trail building that did not fit in with your type of riding.. the criticism of the downhill track being the only trail worked on.. how wrong you were, hey! Remember the time you said you would continue riding up the downhill course? You said you did not care? Well, sorry to say again, it seems you were wrong, it eventually became a one way down. Yes, it seems we were right, riding up a downhill route is not good for one's health. Management agreed, in fact it was considered selfish. Ha, imagine that, being selfish by riding up the only track dedicated to downhill... who would do that?! You never did show up for any build day, did you? Didn't you have the most to say, out of everyone about the state of the trails? Oh, that's right. It was strategically planned for a day when only you couldn't make it.. that's right, I remember. Ah yes, good times, good times.. Let us know before you board your plane.. Would be good to finally meet you, right guys?
