Ok, my local riding spot is seeing activity for the first time in 2 years. all the turns have grass growing there now, etc etc, and the few jumps that were there have eroded.

I'm going to be riding alot there this summer, and it needs to be redone.

I dont want to spend money to find a loader operator to do it, mainly because it's not worth it for my purposes and most of it is not my land.

Is there any kind of junk that would make a decent base for a jump? The woods area still contains some old junk, vintage refridgerators, tires and wheels, etc etc. There is also some logs and being that its near a forest ALOT of dirt.

I'd have the help of 2-3 friends w/ shovels and lifted jeeps to haul heavy stuff around.

I would get the jeeps and drag the logs into a pile and just put dirt on top of the logs, which will save you tons of dirt and time...

logs, cars, old plumbing tubes, cement blocks, fridges, basically anything you never want to see again for fillers.

Don't be crazy. Rent a Bobcat.

For $300 for one days rent, you can make a crazy ride area.

AND the Bobcats fun to run.
