Got some great photos going over the mountain...

you wanna try going over the mountain with your front wheel a foot in the air! thats a buzz!

your right saying there is plenty to bounce off. the second half of the track is really narrow. its improved alot though - there used to be a tree on the run off, which you had to aim at going over the blind sumit into the final 2 turns!

scarey place!

Mr Bridger told me to do it.....
