PITT UPDATE 11-21-10
That's right we've seen the last days of riding at the piff pitt. The parks department reclaimed this forgotten area as their new equiptment storage facility. So far they knocked down about 60 large trees in the process and made the area look like a battle field. Last week they tried knocking the jumps down by hand, then came back with the full sized bulldozer's. Ya we had alot of huge stuff in there. People used to walk by and commend us for cleaning up that area. The only people that had a problem with us riding in there was the batti boys and one or two peeps in the department. We had a good run for the last 4 years in there, was actually the second time that area was developed by us. I think the final total was 35 jumps with 13- 20 foot doubles and 3 different 6 packs. Not to mention the 5 huge step downs including the bush gap. The bush gap was BK's largest feature and has claimed many victum's and bike parts over the years. Fool is the only rider besides myself that ever successfully landed the bush gap. I definately got my moneys worth at the pitt but feel bad for the multitude of riders that were still trying to figure out how to get through our jumps. Local people used to come with the big $6000 bikes and say they ride all over but still couldn't hit the jumps right here in they backyard. Trust me we noticed who was progressing out there and who was just wanking out. The one goal we had with those jumps was not having to struggle to get the right speed out of the gate like soo many of these other local jump spots. I mean whats the point of building jumps with no run in. If you go out west or down south the jumps have huge amounts of speed before you even hit the first set. It's on to the next spot, progress was made, wanksters were discovered, and tons of fun was had. Thanks to everyone that helped us with building. Everyone that sat there doing nothing didn't progress at all and look more like dh enthusiasts at this point. By next season we'll have a new setup for some people to hit and other to look at.LOLOLOLLOLLOL!
