Building on Sunday, May 13th

We'll be working on the new section of Summer Lightning on Sunday, May 13th. The new (still mostly secret) section is oh-so-almost finished, and we hope to finally get this new bit of trail opened as a result of this build day. Every last little bit of help will be needed to reach this goal, so if you can make it along for the whole day, or even half an hour, you'll be helping to open up another couple of hundred metres of trail!

Gavin, Mark and the Davids will be on site from 10am - just ride to the end of Summer Lightning and listen for the sound of all the tools being unloaded. Dave is going to put some signs out to make it easier to find the trail work on the day, so keep an eye out for posters on the trail markers.

Once we're finished with this section of Sumemr Lightning, we plan to do two more things. We're hoping to add a great new ending to BKB, laid out by probably the best trail designer in the area. Secondly, we're going to do a lot more work on the boggy bit of Summer Lightning to make it fast and furious.

Come along on Sunday and help out, and we'll get all this shiny new trail done a load quicker! We will be providing tools and work gloves, as usual - all you need to bring along is food water and yourselves. If you've got some strong boots, that's always handy, too.

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.

Dorking West

    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.
