Machine Built Day 8

Hey guys,

Got out in the afternoon y’day and met up with the fellas. Lots of progress and guys gettin’ after it. We’ve crossed the old Luge for the 5th and last time. Both Colin and Andrew have been pushing forward to reconnect with the old section today before the rains hit.

Not much in the way of pics, but I’ll get more today. Also, we did some reshaping on a couple of jumps and softened some trannies, but I want to reiterate that we’ll be dialing the entire trail long before it becomes open to the public . At this point, something gets shaped and the guys are riding it and tweaking as needed for shape and length…. Once that’s figured and things flow from feature to feature down the hill, then we’ll be making sure that everything is caseable.

I put some overlays on the map image. You can see a good approximation of the progress day to day. Just a reminder, that the exit for the trail will be further down (paralleling the road) than it shows on the map.
