A day or so with a JCB to scrape off the vegetation and expose the stone again would get that track back to it's old self. You want to get onto the local Council about it!
-
how much for a house with that view?
-
its a cool track, the start gate is well steep and the table top that you can see used to be as big as a house.
Shame there are not a few more local riders, a rew comp 3's over the top of that grass and it would be gone in no time.
Oh, the house is a 3 bed detached bungalow with garage and two stores and I am putting it on the market for £165000
-
That would buy you a shed in my part of the country....
-
If it were'nt so far north I'd be interested? :-X

And here is the lake that gives it its name, its about 40 meters to the right of the track, i wonder how many bikes are in the bottom of it?
I know I have done a few Ghosties into it myself....
-

Wow! Finding a house with a BMX track just over the fence is rare!,
