So, I'll be there.... anyone else?
Bellingham DJ Park work
- Thread starter dwaugh
- Start date
I'll see if some of the GHY crew wants to make the trip up there to help. We have some expertise in the DJ arena.
Really cool deal you guys got goin up there. Did a last minute ride last week at Galby and saw a couple WHIMPS guys building some pretty cool bridge rides out of fallen trees up at Family Fun Center. We all stopped for a few minutes and helped out, and was really stoked to see the bridge over the mud, and that optional skinny on the side. Nice nice work.

Hey, I was riding there at the same time, just a different trail. That trail is actually cedar dust.Skookum said:Really cool deal you guys got goin up there.

Anyone with jump building experience is welcome for sure!

Did the work party at the DJ's happen? I couldn't make it but I stay in B-Ham every wednesday night for work, so I was gonna bring my bike this week if they were worked on. Excited to hit them up, nice lines there. Anyone wanna ride wednesday night(s)?
....Next saturday is the work party, the 12th. If you ride it this week, it will not be fixed, however, you could tell us what might need to be fixed.SVEN said:

I plan on going up to help out, I don't know If AJ has to work or not, so give me a call bibs and we'll roll out. I told too many people that I was going up there, so if I don't show up I'm gonna get f****d with...... 
Im in matt and budman
ill show for a while after my ride. ( I only get 2 days a week to ride)
Yeah, there's water that we can use, I'm pretty sure the spigot didn't disappear. 
Was out there today, all alone. Jumps were in need of work, but not too bad. Mud needs to be shaved away, some of the lips could use some shaving. Overrall cleanup is all they really need. I mainly did the line all the way to the left, next to the big line. The ruts and mud were scrubbing my speed a little bit, but a day of work will easily take care of that. The big line has obviously not been ridden for a while, it needs the most work. Also, the main line down the middle, to the right of the big line, looked great except for first lip, it needed to be shaped and shaved a tad so it isn't all rutted out.dwaugh said:
Wish I could help out on Sat. Anyone wanna meet me out there next wednesday, the 16th?
One other thing, the far left line was a little weird. The first one I could easily overshoot, but it was tough to clear the second. Maybe the first one could be built up to provide more flow and pump through the set. I think maybe just shaving away the mud and ruts might do it, but maybe the need to be built up a little differently. It may have just been me, though, I'm a little rusty.
The far left line is a line that was made not with the original park, so it wasn't made the greatest. We'll fix it up so it works. I'll let the group know what you said. What time next Wednesday? I might want to go.
Hey David,
Do you know anything about the plans to seed for grass? I know that was in the original plan with the City but nothing ever came of it last year due to $$. A few of us from the team will be there, when you all planning on being there? I can't stay long, I have a final on monday and two on tuesday plus a project due tuesday so I have a ton of work to get done this weekend.

Hey, I'll be there at 10:00. I emailed Leslie about some stuff and she said:
So, somehow we'll figure this out. See ya there!
Yo! Me and AJ are coming up for sure on Fri night. Get a hold of us if possible.......ride said:
More from Mark:
Dirt Jumper folks,
We have lined up a new load of dirt for the park to be delivered today and we have a mini excavator on line too. Now we just need some diggers and wheelbarrowers to make it all happen.
If anyone that is planning on coming can bring a wheelbarrow and their shovels that would be great.
We'll be starting at 10:00am on this Saturday 3/12/05.

I want to bet there around 3:30, cuz I have a Galbraith ride (my first) starting at 4:30. If I don't get a chance, then I ma stick around and jump thursday starting around 2 or 3.dwaugh said:
This is today folks, I'm heading out there around 11:15-11:30 for about an hour, if I didn't have 4 finals next week and a project I'd stay longer... but I gotta hit the books.
