    Update: Over the weekend we finished 99% of the remaining dirtwork, rehabbed the old trail, and got 2/3rds of the planks installed on the large berm. I expect to have 25 more planks ready to go by Wed. evening when we will get them installed. The large structure should be complete by Thurs. which will give us some time to work on finishing the others. The trail will stay closed until at least Saturday because there are still some areas that are a safety issue with the unfinished structures.

    So close...

    Structure #3 is done! We finished the long ground berm over the weekend and it rides amazing. Still working on Structure #2 but 1/3 of the decking has been installed and Russ and I bent most of the remaining deck planks Sun. evening. Everything should finally be done sometime this week.
