Trail building at Rudeskov


27th April 2014

Today was the big trail building day out in Rudeskov about 18km north of where I live in Norrebro. By the way, Rudeskov (skov = forest), at least the Rude bit, is pronounced nothing like it looks.


It's somewhere between the French 'Rue' and German 'Ruh' but with a more silent 'R'!! Just when I think I get it right people say 'Va' - What!!! Oh well, I'll keep trying drawing on all that language training.

 So back to the trail building. Well, the idea was to build two table top jumps about 1.5 km in to the forest. Easy except, tonnes of rubble needed moving from the road side and, the trail cleared to get the rubble out to the jump site.


So, the order of the day was, work a bit, talk bikes, work a bit more, talk more bikes then lunch while talking bikes.




Then, work a bit and talk bikes and so on...you get the drift...until the jumps were finished and Kasper and others, myself included could try them out.......
