I have moved from sunny Townsville, North Qld to the northern rivers area of NSW. Not much MTB locally (aside from south of me in Coffs) so I have decided to build my own on my place. Eventually (with permission) I woudl like to expand into the adjoining State Forest but as yet I have plenty to do here
A few pics of the trail, and some of the features.
coppicing our own trees, makes the construction of features have very little enviro. impact but does take more work
eg debarking
bridge under construction
Bridge finished
Some of the benched forest trail
testing it out
In the process of building a log ride, need to construct off and on ramps but finalised the initial work
Testing the log for "ride ability"
built a nifty log bridge ride
before decking
checking ride ability before trimming
trimming it up
the finished product
A nifty log crossing, the logs at either end are fixed, the log in the middle roll as you ride across, rock n' roll baby !
