Firstly, I’m sick to death of mowing the lawn and dealing with cuttings etc. I reckon I might just get a pump track past “the committee” so I’m slowly getting my plans down.
I’d love one of those modular all weather ready made tracks. But with the best will in the world, they look a bit too pricey for me at the moment.
I’m a bit tight on space, but my fag packet calculations reckon I’ll be able to get a dirt berm in, with main line radius of 2 – 2.5m if I didn’t need a big pile of dirt behind the berm to support it. So I’m thinking about a reclaimed sleeper supporting wall around the back and sides of the end berms. I guess it would be about 1m high, then once I’m happy cut the sides down to follow the berm to make it look tidy.
What do you think, crazy idea?
