Home Trails

I have a few trails near the house in which I can ride out of the garage and I'm at the trailhead in 5 seconds. I used to spend hours every week maintaining and building new trails, but these days I haven't done a whole lot of work on them. I'm gonna try to start working on them and improving them.

I have built wooden structures with lumber and cut down trees along with large dirt berms and landings. Within 3 acres of woods I've created a decent amount of trails and features to keep me entertained. From downhill bike drops to bmx jumps, the property has some good stuff. I built the above feature last summer with some wood lying around and some cut down trees. I like building with wood and moving earth in the forest.It's calming and invigorating in good ways. 



Some of the features are super fun and never get old. The front yard step up is a addicting jump that I session with friends quite a bit. I love stuff like that because its so close to the house and it helps me and my friends progress while having a blast. There are a lot of trails within 5 minutes of my house which I consider "home trails" but to me real home trails are the ones right outside my house.
