A couple quick trail shots from this past weekend. Nothing crazy and it's hard to shot pics at our place due to the amount of trees and leaves. Fun to ride it tho.

John popping off the 2nd set in the Mains

Sean coming around the 2nd berm in the Gundams

Chris, flatty, last set in the Mains

Me, 3rd set in the Mains, more importantly is the berm in the back of the shot.

Chris, table, last set Mains.

Right after you hit the landing in this set, you carve that berm in the lower right hand corner of the pic. That feeds right into another berm that carves left, then you hit a small transfer that dumps you into the Warmups. That section still has some bugs but it's real close to working.

Damn, that place looks sweet.

I like the moss on the sides of the jumps. Holds everything together.

 

[Fitzy@Geek]

Those look beautiful don, I want to come visit!

 

[Cru Jones]

Nice!! Reminds me of some trails we had back in the midwest. I've been feening some trails in da trees. Everything out here is just baking in the sun.

 

[Evil4bc]

Nice don!

 

[Cru Jones]

BTW... I love that the line is called the Mains. BMX racers in the house!!

Haha. From what I've seen, he's right for the most part. Trails in the east, dirt jumps in the west. Although, there are some exceptions. The midwest seems to be more trails style, as well.

And Sheep has made a little come back compared to what it was a few years ago. But, it's definitely not even close to what it was in the 90s.

Fitzy, anytime you want, come down and ride. As long as the trails are running (not too wet or too dry) we will have plenty for you.

Thanks for the props everyone. This is getting me motivated to take some more pics of our guys riding so I'll try to take the camera w/ me to the trails on the weekends now. There's some good talent and decent trails - just need to get some shots.

That bowl/berm thing you guys have was definitely some motivation. Reading BF's interview right now - thanks for the heads up.

 

[opjones]

Yeah those look sick, try and get a vid going thru it all if you can.

 

[Fool]

Nice Don.

A couple more from this past weekend...

Mike, euro/trail style

Me, first berm out of the Mains

John, Style Cat (he got a new Standard recently) on the Warmups

Mike, table on the Mains

 

[don]

Forgot Frank. On the hip, dropping into the berms.

 

[opjones]

Wow, now that's a BERM!! I didn't realize the size of that baby from the other pics. All take note, that's how a berm should be built. Nice stuff!

Thanks. That's Mike's handi-work. It's a masterpiece. I'm 6', riding a USB, to give you an idea of the size. It also feeds right into another berm going the other way. Fun is an understatement.

 

[Stoked]

nice pics and dirt!

don check your PM

 

[fiddy_ryder]

that is soooo ill

 

[Cru Jones]

that is soooo ill

For reals. Those trails look so sick. That berm is freakin rad!!

And the riding is pretty dope, as well.

 

[jtdcg]

thanks for sharing. That berm matches what you were describing to me this spring...sick.

Funny you brought this thread up, Mike wasn't 100% with the berm as is, so last week he added a bunch of dirt to the end of it and center was getting redone (right where I am in my pic). He wants it to be more of like a corner of a bowl (flat/curve/flat) not like a teacup(just curve). It looked and rode sick before he started changing it up - I can only imagine what it will be like afterwards.

how's the poison ivy in those woods?

^ Speaking of, god damn it I'm itchy, Michigan woods.

I got it 12 times one summer digging trails. I know the feeling.
