Very well. It turned out that there was more snow than I expected but we found enough clear ground to make it work. We had two brand new riders and two newer but advancing riders along with two experienced riders providing tips. The small size worked well and I think everyone left happy and motivated. :thumbup:

Glad it worked out for you.
I had to get out some equipment to clear snow and then move around logs and concrete pipe to build sections that were entertaining.
Nothing I would call "noob friendly" but as fast as I would drop a large log the crew was riding with no kickers so I just kept adding more and larger challenges.
Only one fender was snapped and that occurred just riding to the logs.

I was feeling pretty good about going over a 3' log for the first time in my life, until Purple Haze did the same within 15 minutes of owning his first trials bike. Those mtn bikers are cray cray :screwy:

Funny you say that... one of the guys was on one of his first few rides Sunday and was hopping the front end. Yep, mountain biker.

I figure by the end of next week he'll have surpassed my abilities. :dirtdog:
