@DZ
Skidded to a stop when I saw it (the bone) laying in the stream, but 99% sure it was a deer,

P.S its a bloody swamp over there at the moment

Yep - was there last week and it was seriously slippery. Jumps seem to have held up despite some crosser use though so that's good. The other trails are more a test of my ESP and memory too as you can barely see which way they go!

If you don't want that trail to get fuct up, please don't ride it when it's soaked!

@Peach

You can see why the trail centres are always in conifer forests now. :?

Trail under here somewhere

Don't worry - I only went to go take a look. To be fair, it's the mx bikes we need to worry about the badger set was really churned up :(

Or dig some sand and gravel (out of the stream bed) & patch em up, for the winter.
Anyone got a bike trailer ?

Like it MarkL, think they have gone beyond patching tho. Need a local quarry and a dump truck :mrgreen:

Been up there walking recently. Conditions are shocking but nice to see a few new sections springing up....;). Shame the MX bikes have been out in force not to mention someone "attacking" some of the new trail features and trying to block the trails.

Once it dries it should be great fun.

PS bike trailer would be VERY handy. That or a safe storage facility in the woods....

In Canada they have just filmed and arrested someone for deliberately placing logs and branches across trails.

Brilliant. I could dig out my old go-pro and a car battery and we'd be away....!
