What everybody has failed to mention is, all of the wood take-off ramps have been torn down, so there is only a few of the dirt landings left over. It is not a fix up, it is complete re-build from scratch, which requires permission from the landowners.

See Morgan's post for details on how to get involved to do a re-build if that is what you are after.

A few dirt landings is all we need. Would the DNV be pissed if old jumps were just buffed up? Not changing anything, just fixing?

I'm happy to get outside and enjoy nature while I can, but I fear for the future of humanity

Did you actually read what I said, all the take-offs are completely gone, there is nothing to buff, I guess you could buff a couple landings that are there and try to bunny onto them if that turns your cranks.:S

Hahahahaa, sweeet, an uphill jump trail, with safety boxes on the take-offs…. that will go well.

I still like my idea of bunny to tranny (that sounds like something you could find in the Westender)

I guess Surrey is where it's at. This is the future of mountain bike parks.

Mountain biking needs to loosen up, everyone take a drink

Lip of a jump ex. Jonny took off the lip of the jump and overshot to flat and smashed his face into the dirt.
