Wild Trail setups
CARROTFVCKER:
with as much time as i have spent with a shovel in my hand slinging dirt i learned one very important lesson. be a dick and yer shit gets fucked with!!!
you idiots have no clue and are everything that is wrong with bmx anymore..................................if you own the land fine do what you want, but if you dont then fuck you i will ride if i want to! you same fuckheads have no issue barging places skaters built or grinding ledges and rails that you didnt build! get real
HeyKid Matt:
Pretty sure Carrot fvcker just summed it up perfectly. Juzz sayin

Sounds like most of you haven't spent a whole winter digging while everyone else is down the park or riding street, only to suddenly be Mr Popular once spring comes and the trails are all dried out.
If it's not your spot, don't ride. Simple. Have a look round, leave a not with your number/email on asking them to get back to you whether or not you can ride. Also, put if no one responds you will assume that no one is digging at the spot. That way, the builders won't ignore you and will let you know either way.
Seriously, I don't spend hours and hours of work at the trails just to piss my girlfriend off. And I sure as fuck don't do it so that you guys can spend your winter at the park and still have some trails in the summer. Meet people, say hi, ask to ride, and more importantly, ask to HELP.
It's called fucking manners. Anyone saying that trails are awful or whatever only thinks that because they don't have manners. In know this, because when I was younger I used to do it and I'm pretty sure people hated me for it. Then I started chatting, being friendly, and helping to dig, and then people were nice. How strange!

if ive built a spot and non-locals turn up and want to ride once in a while, as long as they dont litter/are not cocks i dont have a problem with that. im not gonna make them pick up a shovel and do a bit of work just to make some token gesture, nor am i going to make them fix anything they break- they didnt do it on purpose (and theyll probably fix it wrong anyway)
however when i arrive at a spot, i dont expect everyone to have the same attitude as me.
I spent a whole winter in the woods making some trails once, me and one other guy. come summer there were about 15 people (mostly young kids) who would frequent the spot. seeing as we built them in the most obvious place ever there wasnt really much we could do about it (we did demolish the small line which got rid of a few of them) but its these lazy shits that can GTFO.

yea and thats probably why no one helps you build . because your a knob who judges people before you even speak to them. in fact i bet you dont even speak to them and you just stand there looking pissed off. maybe angrily go pack down a take off next to where hes stood after 20 mins of mumbling to yourself
if someone like eggit has only just stumbled across your trails then how do you expect him to be building them ? are you like this to all newcomers ? maybe you should get some private land then
im pretty sure if you had a word or if you didnt treat him like shit then he would have no problem helping out. just like im sure he would of fixed any damage. he might even of had his own trails he could tell you about. but how the fuck is he supposed to help build once they are already built or once you are being an ass to him? the only way he can help is by finding out who builds them but that aint going to happen if your turning up there all angry at him
carrotfvcker knows the score !
trails etiquette here was always a simple ''fix anything you break'' ''help build if people are building'' and there was never any problems. being an ass just makes people be an ass back
