… as per the title.

Being typical middle-aged train centre fodder with 2 kids getting better on their bikes, and a lawn which exists mainly to grow moss and feed badgers, I am thinking about putting some rocks/logs/small drop-offs in the garden.

Someone must have done this? Anything to watch out for?

And before anyone suggests it… yes I am arranging some coaching elsewhere.

Have a look on the dirt website, lots of features on “backyard pump tracks”.

Not in the garden, but close and it was a few years ago.

It progressively got bigger and bigger as the weeks went on.

I’ll be doing this again this year to hone my mincing skills. 😉

Anything to watch out for?

It can be addictive building trails/jumps things!

the missus let me have a pump track to use up garden space to cut down on maintenance. its small but very fun.

On the verge of building a little pump track and there are a few tree stumps I think I could maybe utilise for something.

You have a garden big enough to build such a thing? *sigh* If only…

Quater pipe

Wall ride/bowl

Both cool, and both disguisable as fence pannels 🙂

Make everything out of pallets as shown above, cheap/free and infinate possibilities with a touch of imagination!

Note mine, but I’m going to try something similar this summer..

😯

but some good ideas chaps

Thanks
