Shinerider Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) Hmmmm. Most of my yard is dirt and grass won't grown anyway. Hmmm Heheheheh - just got permission to put in some features! She did mention if I'm going to haul in dirt for a pump track - I better be bringing sod with it! But, she is cool with wooden stuff!

Do it!! Yeah I'd been building stuff for a couple of years. The last things have been wooden features (1 foot drop, skinnies, portable take off and landing ramps). The dirt stuff wasn't rideable and with a slope on the yard, drainage and erosion are a problem. So I'm thinking 100% wood pump-track like the Backyard Trail Builds guy did on his channel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a chain saw, hammers, and some galvanized nails, as well as a drill. I'm in! Edit: Oh, and of course some experience building features.
