Freeride Park update!


So what I have learned is this... Sun is better than rain and snow!

This was two weeks ago, after days of sunshine it decided to snow on the park on a build day. So... building was off but we decided to keep the machine in action and at least chew up some material because that is just fun.

This past weekend we had a mini build planned and cove-shocker Drew Mitchell of Cove Bikes swung over to help connect the large pump track but again it decided to rain. No luck. But we took the time to use North Saanichs Wheel Loader and designed the little kids track and form some berms with base material.

Everthing is wet so until ther material dries we are going to wait and hunt down more material for the park so we can make it professionallyBig Props to Gordy Martman Excavating for consistantly backing us up with machinery, it is making other parks jealous at how good we have it.

Bike Park update!

We have been building in the winter time, not the best when dry material is key but we laid the pump track on the first sunny day we had.

Now spring is here we are scrambling for material to help mix into the clay on premise and big thanks again to Gord Martman Excavating, who has again stepped in with some material for us to use. The excavator was taken way temporarily but will be back for a few hours of mixing then we can loop the pump track.

Check out the quick videos.

Breaking dirt at last!




2 weeks ago we had a bit of sun, enough sun to dry up the soil enough for digging. We had Gord Martman drop off a machine and operator to begin cleaning the site and fluffing the soil into wind rows.
Click here to see us in action!
I will post up last weeks efforts and show the pump track being made. We need help!
This park is going to be so rad we just need a bit more support.
Keep an eye out for our member ship and sponsorship forms we will be handing out within a week. In the mean time contact Greg at gp.spi@shaw.ca for any information!
Cheers!
Greg
