howdy
MAD are currently digging a course for our NPS and also for our King of 3Rock events.
The new sections we are cutting in need to be ridden a fair bit to bed them in and test them
We've also blocked some existing lines so that new/alternative/overtaking lines can get bedded in to make them as fast as the exisiting ones, in particular on the Schizzle that runs down the forest beside the boneshaker.
We've dragged branches/rocks etc to block off some of the existing lines so just be aware if you see a normal route blocked-off, and a new one added, that it was likely us that did it - and possibly not some of the eejits up there who throw branches across trails, so just follow the alternative trail and all should be nicely sorted by the time our events come around.
Also, the keen eyed among you will have spotted various bamboo canes, bits of marking tape or red marker spray around 3Rock
This are Coillte's markers for new trails up there so make sure not to move them etc..
If ye see anyone trying to remove the markers/ branches/rocks can ye let them know the story -
thanks
