The progressive drops, dirt jumps and steps downs are a really good idea

Great  theres already a newish xctrail from the back of the 4x start ramp that flows around the 4x track and ends up at the final berm on the dual jump line round the back of the drop was being improved last time went there, an extra berm being added to give more speed over the 2nd double. |

That looks quite good. One thing they have needed at Chicksands for a while is progressive jumps, drops etc. There is no real in between beginner and big at the moment! |

I know when we rode there last, the ranger was saying they where having issues regarding the parking there, as the owner wanted more rent for the parking area... Hope that gets sorted too... Sent from my KFHD viaTapatalk |

Was there last weekend and liked what they have done with the place. The flow line (to the left of the drops out back) is short but very well build- you ca run from slow to warp speed on it. Hugh hopes for what is to come |

New plans look really good. Would love the addition of another pump track and even a bmx track. Never venture to chicky on weekends (normally save it for days off work) as I been told it gets stupidly busy is it really that bad? |

Even when its busy its great, you rarely find youself in a queue for anything and if you do its normally with good people ! |

No I am talking about the one on the opposite side of the park, past the downhill kind and pump track on the left of the two drops. |
