thats sweet I wish we could do something like that. What did you do just go find some old forest area around where you live or what. My dad is a superintendant for a construction company so he could bring home a skid loader and other equipment but we just can't find any land to do it on.

thats his back yard he has a large area of bush so we decide to make a trail/track in one....
The berms are wider than the track because we havent reallr raced through it yet but i think we'll take the case bull dozer and make it 3-4 quads wider. it great fun

that looks so awsome I wish we could do something close to that, all the riding down by my house sucks.

looks like you are getting a good start...........can I make a few suggestions?

#1. yeah, make the track a little wider

#2. when you build berms simply scrape the topsoil up from all directions & build the berm UP. do not cut down like you have done, because you will have a mud hole the first time it rains. from the look of the pics, there is nowhere for the water to drain from the berm cuts. Maybe I am wrong, optical illusion?

#3. use old logs, pipes, or whatever for jumps. build dirt up over them. this will help save time when building a jump, and will allow you to have larger jumps using less dirt.

hope I have not insulted your intelligence.........I did not intend to. have fun!
