heck, it's been awhile since i've rode and still saving money to fix my quad, so i started building this practice track for me when it's all fixed, this is the only pic i have , and it's off a cell phone so not that good, the jumps will have afew more loads on them so them will be bigger, this section is fun, all my friends come ride and they love it also... i'm standing on teh last landing..pretty good for shovel built

the 2nd pic is teh big jump, i'll take a pic when someone jumps it, u can see at the end of it we added on, it was 40 but we added 10 or more feet, and we're only half done, it takes 4ever when a shovel and wheel barrel

yea, it's really nothin special, but hey, it works, and it's a place to ride, and the rythm might be kinda small, but u go faster through it b/c it's smaller, they need alil work tho,b/c we've been riding on a 400 and when i get the 450 out there might need to try stuff, like triple triple double on the rythm , it would be awesome
