    Pics of my backyard,,,track included

    This is my little riding paradise,lol. I have a 20' double,a 20' tabletop,a smaller5-6' double,and tons of rocks.Nothing too serious.Its mainly a wide single line track.G-MAN's son rides his Cobra50 on the track also so it has to be somewhat user friendly.I get outta hand once in awhile and overshoot a turn and hit a tree,I even slammed into the camper a few times with the blaster.Other than the jumps,everything was formed just by riding.The rocks just keep coming out of the ground.I spend atleast an hour a week picking rocks off of the track.When the BIG rocks appear I bring the backhoe home from work,dig them out and add them to the pile,or bury them and add the dirt to the track.I also use the logs and rockpiles as obstacles.
    These pics dont show depth too well....

    no wonder Yamaha Jim kicks so much a** on the mx course at trike fest. He has his own mx course to practice a on for a good part of the year(until it snows I bet) Looks like a real fun little course to ride on. I would love to have a small course like that to screw around on when ever I wanted. My local riding area is nothing more than a bunch of idiots riding around in random directions. There is no uniform direction they ride in, so yea there are a lot of crashes, think they would learn after being in a crash or watching one, not a chance.

    RacerX Illustrated had SX track blueprints from different cities a few yrs back in thier magazine.It gave track width,jump heights and distances apart for doubles and triples. I'll have to look through my old mags.If I find them I'll scan them for you.
    If I had my own eqipment to use whenever and a heap of dirt, I could make some nice SX and MX tracks.
