I'm pooped!
Spent the day at the Vernonia Bike Park.
Got there at round 10am to find a big old pile of bark dust just waiting for me!!
I use this to put around the shore stunts to help cut back on the weeds and help create a better fall zone for the newbees!




























I also got started on the Dual Stunt Area. Not to much done there yet, I'll need a few hands on this one I think.


























Those things are HEAVY! I just need to get a font loader and push then in all the way, and cut them to size! About 2.5 feet.

Another nice thing I found is that people are riding the new stuff!
The JR. Drop Zone has tire tracks and even a skid mark on the taller of the two, I think some one was trying to get the gonads to hit it, even if it is only a 3 foot drop, got to start somewhere right?

Check this out!

It's a map that me and some other riders from round the Country and Canada are working on!
Also go take a look at MTB Gear Tech Dot Com's site!

Ok, so I got the tech skills area weed whacked, some stuff put back together and added a small Rock Garden and move that teeter in to a better spot. You should go have a look, I'm proud of what I got done for one day! I was thinking I'll be back on Friday to unearth the jump line! I was thinking of see if we could build a Dual Stunt Course there, this would allow for another kind race to be held at the park! The one in the link is a bit more flow oriented, like the one the North West School Of Freeride has, I would want to build one that is more Techy and more about balance and skills. We could start it off the back side of the starting mound that is there now.

Cool stuff in the works!

I've got the go ahead to revamp the Skills Park at Vernonia Lake, I want to build more jumps (fix what is there) a pump track and tons of shore stunts, and the guy in charge of it Scott wants me to build some stunts on the short track, they are very laid back about what I want to do out there and they don't need care about going the red tape rout, it's like this, we show up look at where we want to build a line, and build it, we do have to build it correctly and make everything we build, built to last!

If your up to give me hand, drop email me at vallymtb@yahoo.com

I'll need all kinds of riders to help with this, from newbs to crusty old vets, this will allow us to build something for everyone to ride.
