But if you'd like to offer up a 10 car garage in Calif., I'll be sure to keep one of the bays open for you anytime you need it.

you jump on a fun box for doing wheelies and nose manuals on then jump off.

this is a wallride but i'm talking half the size. you jump at the wall at an angle ride it then hop off.

seems expensive for not much gain.

Google:

"A square enclosing one acre is approximately 208 feet and 9 inches (63.6 metres) on a side".

75' run up, 50' gap, and 75' landing clearance should be enough.

Can a bike clear 50' in the top of 2nd?

I have a square acre and can't get out of high 2nd low-mid 3rd, at that point I gotta be hard on the brakes. I think it's enough to clear 50' though.

Do you realise the amount of dirt needed for a wall is a lot? You'd need to buy a decent cliff. A good landing is a hellllll of a lotta dirt. I once got a free dump-truck load of dirt, thinking I'd make a big jump and it wasn't much, I made a 5' tall jump with a 5' gap, and the landing had to be bigger than the jump but it wasn't - jumping a stock 03 XR100 when I was 240lbs. That was fun :devil:, it used all the travel but never clanked out.

Try to find an acre that has a narrow part that's long enough to top out.

Smaller indoor MX tracks look to be what, 2-4 acres?

Wall ride... might wanna buy close to a hospital lol.

i guess some like to push the limits and ride more than others. the only thing that will cost anything would be the wallride section, unless i could find a short semi trail laying at a junk yard more than likely next to nothing.
