That looks suspiciously like a skatepark setup to me.

That does suck, it looks like an awesome place if you're into big jumps. Any idea if the whole lot is being closed to bikes or just the jump area?

Went to Woburn today. All the jumps are way above my skill level but they look awesome, loads of lines. I stuck to the downhill runs and explored the singletrack. Here's a small portion



Rumoured that they'll be getting plowed very soon but no official word yet AFAIK.

that video got me so fucking motivated to build some trails. I think its time i build my own.

Same here, I just need to find some land out of sight that isn't owned by some crazy farmer who'd come down with a shotgun if he found out, hah. Any suggestions from the UK guys?

Check the zip line filming on this

The drop at 1:30 looks fucking ridiculously steep!

Follow Me uses a lot of zip-line stuff as well as far as I can see, looks awesome - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsXWPfazcQM 1:20 ish

I don't fit into either of those mtb groups really, I'm definitely a case of all the gear no idea though with my mtb I think haha. mtb is more for xc and downhill now I've got a bmx though.

That trail swap idea sounds good, although I don't have any of my own to show for myself. But it'd be nice to ride something different.

The builders have been making some more stuff up western park in Leicester. Still not very wild though, haha. Dunno what the situation is with digging as I think its council owned/ran but I reckon I should help out soon as the most I do is pick up litter.

Mini pump track



They cleared the small centre line started to extend the berm at the end of the main set of tables. Looks like the new berm will lead into another set of tables or hopefully doubles (if the council allow it).

I still agree with Eggit but as I've never built trails from scratch (just helped the guys at my local (which was initially council-built) move stuff around) I probably can't have a proper opinion on it. So long as people were having a good time and not ruining them/littering, then I really don't see a problem.

Nice. I've been looking for a spot to make a few little jumps but so far can't find anywhere thats not gonna be found by the farmers and get torn down straight away.

It is. But it's not an acceptable excuse.

The good times far outweigh the boredom.

I'd have to ride alone as well though, since none of my mates are into bikes. Home-made trails don't seem that much fun by yourself.

I fucking hate anyone that moans about not having trails.

Digging by yourself is boring.
