26th November build day - new Summer Lightning

On Sunday 26th November, we will be building an extension to Summer Lightning in order to take advantage of new land available to us. This will add a scrummy downhill
finish to the trail, which currently ends in a section that climbs up the hill. We'll carry the trail across the crossroads up there, and then down another hillside. See? There was a reason after all.
If you fancy coming along, we'd love to see you. We will provide tools and guidance - we need to bench in the new line, and do a bit of work on the climb, which was too dry to dig on during the summer when we marked it out.
Even if you can only stop off for ten minutes during your ride, your help will get a brand new section of trail finished off and ready to ride even sooner. See you there!

BKB - the closed bits

  • Lower part of trail blocked
    Here's some pics showing BKB - and the closed parts of the trail. Hurtwood Control have basically taken action because of the disruption the old end of the trail caused to the next door neighours, who were getting a little tired of hearing 'CLEAR!' yelled outside their bedroom window from 7am on Saturday and Sunday mornings. They were very nice about it, by the way, and are real supporters of Hurtwood. The bonus? we get to put in lots of new bits of trail, and increase the length of BKB by a high margin in the process.

    The new pump track at Dorking West is pretty much there - it just needs a little bit of shaping and cleaning, and it's good to go. props to oli at Head for the Hills for all the work in the background recently.
