14 June 2008
It was great weather for a dig day.
Alistair turned up bright and early and we went off to widen existing parts of chicken run. Later Alistair went off and started working on the extension through the rocky section
as his expertise is rock baron.
An hour or so of toil passed and I was joined by Lisa, Aaron and Warrick. We went and sorted out some lines on the rock garden, widened that part of chicken run and tidied up the entrance into that section.
Aaron and Warrick haven't had a free weekend to help us for ages, so they were pretty happy with how things have progressed and will definitely be bringing their bikes next time, and that won't be too far off.
As we were seeing everyone off (with dogs just to make sure), we met up with Jonathan Kennett and his mate Martin who were sussing us out for the next K bible. When Jonathan heard that we were going to test out all the virgin sections, his eyes lit up!
I am pleased to say that I heard largely whoops, enthusiastic grunts and very little swear words and we all survived intact - so great work to all your trail builders over the last 2 years. The rock garden is good, and both down and up and the chute that gets you onto the approach to the rock garden is sweet. The berm as always is a giggle.
See you next time,
