postimage use to when u click copy give the same as the right click one but must have changed it now

Nice one adam, gotta get up there some time soon

On Sunday we also stared building a new bit of shore.
Its starts from the drop off on the right hand line of the shore just before you roll down to where we repaired it, (if that makes sense)
and goes into a ladder kicker into a raised shore sattelite style landing and launch

Sounds realy good wenman
did see a few new bits of wood around there but didnt have a proper look
will take a look this weekend
hopefuly getting another wheelbarrow and a few more tools up up aswell so that some can stay on each side of the river

Ask a silly question, but has the wood been coated in some form or protection?

I know paint can/ varnish can be slippery, though maybe we could tack some chicken wire down on it?

Just asking

It hasn't but there was a possibility of coating it, every thing we've repaired/ built will have chicken wire on it eventually

I'm pretty sure that by the time it's all built up my arm should be sorted, and I should be able to help out with that

Just didnt want all the hard work to rot to ruin.

Im reasonably new to the area but have been riding a fair while. seriously up for some digging! plus im at uni in trent park so its just a quick spin down the road for me! weekdays and weekends are good for me just let me know and ill be there!

If your in trent park there is a old set of trails there. i dont think anyones ridden them for a long time but if your on a short travel/hardtail then they should be good again. i also dug a couple of doubles up there deep in the woods to the right of the needle, but that was about 6 years ago so im not sure if they will still be there

Saw what you built today wenman

looks like it'll be fun to ride

Sweet, I will have a look at them tomorrow. When will the Enfield " maintainence team " be there? I will come along and help?
