[i]The new ending to Barry Knows Best (Golden Birdies) is now complete and the trail now needs to consolidate before being ridden. This will ensure that the trail surface has settled and that the life of the trail is extended. We have estimated that it will take a month of consolidation before being ready to ride. We will be monitoring the trail and will open the trail as soon as we can.
Your co-operation is appreciated during the consolidation period is appreciated. This is your trail and if you keep off it for one month it will give you years of quality riding.

On a similar note, there will shortly be a communication to people that have been added to the volunteer email list (send an email to mtb@hurtwoodcontrol.co.uk) arranging sessions to get the finish on the trail done. We now have a trail report from Ian Warby that we can use to get the trail up to a standard that it can be considered finished - mixed with the right weather over the next month and we should see the trail openened soon!

new trail now opened!
...and it's great. I rode it this afternoon. Super flowy, as I believe the young people say, with big berms. Thank you to all who put in all the hard work - well done. I was giggling like a ****t at the bottom!
Donation made BTW.
Yah also rode it today. And there are even jumps! Amazing job.
