It has begun! Along with Stonnington City Council, team XXIV (http://www.xxiv.com.au/)have started work on Windsor Siding. Eric Frenchy was the mastermind of this brainchild; coming up with a masterful design which will feature 2 six packs, 1 big 4 pack and a set of 3 table tops.
This Friday gone (21st of April) we built one 6 pack and the big 4 pack. It was a solid days work from everyone who helped out: Eric, John, Cyril, Taz, Ryan, and last but not least Bruce from the Stonnington City Council doing an awesome job in the Bob Cat. We also have to thank the Stonnington Council for letting it all go ahead and especially Peter who is in charge of parks and gardens who met with us and lined up the us of the Bob Cat and the initial grading of the site.
The jumps themselves are looking fantastic, nice and wide with good distance and height on all. We wanted to make everything much more trickable and forgiving with the addition of the bigger 4 pack for those more adventerous who want to bust out the big moves with bigger air time.
Hopefully phase 2 should happen in the coming weeks and we will get the addition 6 pack and tabletops put in, maybe something else if we have the dirt available.
See you down there!
Also please spread the word, this was a MTB park, built by MTBers and is for MTBers so make sure you keep riding if there are BMXers. Have respect for them, but it is YOUR park so don't let them push you around either. Play nice :)
