I had a nice ride w/ Brian today. We did a nice feeler of most of the trails. He got to ride my Xtrainer a bit and try to remember what a clutch is!

We scouted out another little area for riding/playing.

I'll try to put a few pics up.

Around to the left. Maybe cut upper log on right side.

Good thought. I'll have to look at that next time I'm there.

You mean as a place to hop the bikes over?

Just use caution cutting that...lots of tension on it. I would cut where the limbs split off, better options to ride over. Then cut twice, one mid way to stump and again at stump. You can roll - drag them to where you want to use. Looks like maple and bark is silly slick. Since you have a RzR you can tug around some to open trail and line up to ride over.

Looks like a beech tree to me. I'd cut the back half of the split off and move it out of the way so you can hop the front half of the split. The front half is on the ground, the back half looks to be off of the ground a bit. Drag it 10' down the trail and make it a 2nd log hop if you want.

Lots of options. Let me know when you have a day free. (Mid week stuff in Jan)
