i have been busy digging a new trail. it's hard work but rewarding.
the taril will be rollable for the 1st half then the 2nd half with its gaps wont be. the gaps will be 10ft, 15, 23ish and 30+ for the last hopefully. it's called air supply ๐Ÿ™‚

Looks like fun. It's a lot of work trail building isn't it? I've been building one through some woods and it's been taking ages cutting back all the veg and doing all the drainage and digging and stuff.

It seems like quite a lot of work. I mean initially it just seems like you just build a jump - but that involves an approach, a kicker, a landing and a run out. Where I'm thinking of trail building is semi cheeky so I don't want to move a lot of earth. A few carefully positioned paving slabs though...
