Big thanks to Mark Heiman for sculpting a stellar logride on the VMT! Well done, Mark. Nice chainsaw work! and that wooden-planked run-in is a nice touch.

Hmmm...looks like a bloody knee and elbow to me! :mrgreen:

(But it is pretty cool.)

Thanks for testing it out fellas. I need to do a little more work on the exit so it is a little more "friendly." I also want to put in an easy exit so everyone can give it a shot. Maybe the rain will hold out a little and I can get out there.

Very nice addition Mark. Perfect placement too, you can just scoot off the singletrack and rail the log ride. Its a tough little exit, me likey....but the big ring doesn't.

Did a little more work to the log ride today. Now it is easy for all. Check out the new line.

And how about the unicycle taking the hard line!

Flawless!
Then everyone started getting in on the action.

Rape built? Are you going to get raped when you crash on it Trail Nazi? :lol:

Yeah, I saw that thing out there yesterday. Didn't even bother trying it! I've already had enough downtime this year.

Looks like you came by while I was on a Home Depot run. Every project takes at least 4 Home Depot runs.

It looks kind of brutal from that angle.
