Backyard trails

WTF is wrong with you?

WWIII won't be man vs. man, it'll be earth vs. man. The Japanese knew this in WWII and have been preparing the shrub army 1st division ever since. Prepare the Glyphosate Guns and Herbicidal Howitzers!

Just started stacking up a jump. Needs a lot more dirt. Planning about an 8' gap with a huge landing that is stepped up a bit.

Nice little backyard BMX setup i stumbled upon. Made the most of a smallish space:

It's been a while, but this is the latest project.

Before you say it - no this is not remotely final. The 6x6s are attached with only 1 screw per side so I can adjust the height/angle of the ramp. I have a lot left to do here before I start even firming up the framing. I suspect this will be done by Xmas at best.

But it is getting closer!

all the stuff you built since 2020 looks awesome.

curious at what point do you have to deal with the town and/or homeowners insurance stuff with this? It might just take one person with nothing better to do to call the town on you and then you have to take it all down which I hope never happens of course.

It’s always a possibility. If it happens then so be it. I’m not gonna lose sleep over it.

Or I may have a massive bonfire. Send it with style.

Too much. We must burn everything and let nature start from scratch.

Nice. Is it a berm to drop?

HBD @Norm !

Still working that out. Ideally I’d put a small step up to get onto it then maybe a drop to get off. The way the yard lays out though I may have a small step-up 20 feet from the end, which could be a harsh transition.
