Basic Training trail build update - mini excavator!


Today we had a mini-excavator out at Basic Training! It made short work of creating a very big jump and a huge transition landing area. Lots of earth got moved. Nick (the operator) cut a new intermediate trail also - for the run-out after a new drop from road we plan. It was a good solid day of building, and I got to test out the new big jump first! That's two for two on getting to hit the new stuff we've built in the dirt jump bowl (first the new big drop and now the big jump). I cleared 15 foot gap at least. When I get more comfortable with the launch and landing, i'll be ready to hit the real road gap jump up on Granny's Kitchen (there's no "safety net" on that jump though - like we have built into our big jump).

I published a photo album of the mini excavator at work...
