No one else was maintaining this spot so I decided to grab a shovel and fix it up. Progress so far:
- Re-faced a few jumps
- Fixed drainage problems in a berm
- Cleared out vegetation on a gap and working on sizing the lander appropriately for the speed
- Added some dirt to a roller set to make it more fun to rip

Sometimes you just have to be the group. This trail was all but abandoned so I decided to just get out there and fix it.
I’m always a fan of drainage work - time well spent, but everyone just wants to build jumps…
It’s the most important consideration, IMO. Jumps are fun when they run fast enough. Nothing ruins speed like gloopy, poorly draining trails.
Amen!
