Sunday Blast Digging - everybody up- no excuses

Hello,
Everybody needs to get up to The Blast Course on Sunday, unless you are physically incapable of wielding a mattock or a shovel.
or have a really good excuse.
No fcuking off to bree for sneaky practices..if I hear about people going on spins when they really need to be deschlomping the track, then don't come back..
This is crucial considering todays weather,
Richie
Deadly.. My plan is if the Chislers thing is rained off tomorrow i will spend a few hours hacking away up there and if not i will go up when were finish with the Chislers.
Blast digging this sunday

Bring a packed lunch, drinks (non alcohilic) and warm clothes, if during the morning a section is finished thats not an excuse to go home thinking you've done youre part, there are other sections which need attention,

If everyone comes up we'll get alot of good shaping building and after today drainage done.


Saturday night hangovers 'excuses' will get you excomunicated!
No, you can bring your bikes if you want, but seriously, a lot of the track is in bits, lets just get stuck in and we'll get it seen to in no time.
Richie
and another thing, can people let me know where they've hidden tools, theres a pile of them up there and loads are missing, including Fergals. in fact I think my green Wheelbarrow is missing from its original location ?
I stashed the new barrow and tools at the Northshore. Nobody touch them !!!

Al and Mark are right of course, the only way to get constructive work done is without the bikes.

Everyone has other things they'd prefer to do but we have to put in a massive effort to prove yet again how deadly we all are.

It will all be worth it on Sunday next week :)
I have a shovel, mottock, rake and bucket up at the patio but can you leave them there as i have a bit of tweeking to do.
from the top..
the entry forest if fine
so is the firebreak.

Skippys patio - needs work on the short climb after to make it less slippy, -
BON and DON and CLIVE
Heavens Gate area - Me and Killian and Colin
Alans singletrack - needs toughening up and deschlomping
Als humps - Al and gang
Gully of death - BON
Singletrack before last forest- major seschlomping needed- major task but its the nearest to the car park. - so Volunteers needed , it has to be drained or built over as much s possible as it will suck the speed out of you big time.
Try to imagine the course as a whole and how hard it will be to pedal deep schlomp.
These are the main areas and Al, Mark, GAV,Bon and me are the in charge people,
I will have Gerry and Big Damo with me too..
A lot of rock will need moving to make some sections faster.
if anybody has any good flat timber, bring it with them.
bringing the bikes is a bad idea, unless you are a seasoned builder who has gotten stuck in and wants to sample the fruits of their labours.

had to take them back last night down last night an extention was needed to the swimming pool
they are in the swimming pool. we didn't use the wheel barrow on the swimming pool or lower section. maybe it left to pursue its dream of becoming a unicycle?
