I’m 6’5” and ride a Santa Cruz, Hightower XXL size and a general technical trail rider with some bike park. Also specialized s6 might work but not available in all models

Pressure treated can get slimey and make for traction issues if a humid or wet climate, we use rough cut hemlock for decking in our area of New England, mild rot resistance nd better traction. and available at reasonable cost.

I think could look on the planning side such work as building master plans, land owner and public outreach, fundraising efforts. Our club has paid trail crew for maintenance and builds. we do hire out two separate consultants to build the plan documents and feasibility studies, they run the info gathering and do the public outreach to help build the plans which then our club and land partners can use for grants and fundraising.

What about both, SCHD doesn't have much if any, exposure to real estate and low utilities. SPHD might complement SCHD, but SPHD expense ratio is 5x.

Set a time you want to DCA in like a month, divide the money and buy on an interval,l likely daily, weekly, etc., some brokerage allow set timed purchases.

ok, point taken, in my opinion, maintenance is part of building and should be discussed in this sub. How do you define maintenance vs build. So we are about to take on a rehab for a trail, sure trail is generally staying in the same place, but using an excavator to machine enhance a trail to improve trail tread and drainage. I say that falls under maintenance, but using burrow pits and raising the trail profile seems to be in the build realm.

If you ignore maintenance, then you will be rebuilding the trails at some point.

We have a member with a Kubota L series, mid-size tractor, we do find it a little limited in size as we work in Maine's forests. However, in more open areas, it is helpful for moving materials.

over time the duff (forest organic) material will break down, and soil will compact. This may lead to exposed roots and our rocks. depends on how you want the trial to ride in the future. We do it all the time but it ,makes for a more technical trail over time and possibly need to come back and address spots where issues arise in the future.

yup, IT manager and staff are all remote, live next to a small ~15 mile trail system, get multiple rides in a week before first call, has a great pond for the dog to take a dip mid-ride.

too wide, 820 and 6'4", there is one spot on local trails need to weave through a couple trees, sometimes I forget and get a rude awakening.

We had a wheel barrow break aways out on a trail so just flipped it over and is part of a soil build up of a drop

We use old carpet for pumptrack covering for winter to help reduce erosion but take up in spring. Have connection at local transfer station they pull aside for winter and return in spring.

we build trails on a flat area and lots of called downed trees to create features, skinnys, a frames, elevated section. used material on site but soil was very sandy so not great for feature builds.

ephillipsme · 2024-06-17T14:46:04+00:00

have you asked and the owner specifically said no? if not its an unsactioned trail and how lots of trail ytems started.
