  1. Found a really cool little "Rock Garden", which seems like it woiuld be
    perfect for trials and/or muni riding. Video is shot with no sound, no
    frills. POV of what rider would see. After viewing it, tell me if you
    think it looks like a good, challenging natural trials course. Every
    time I drive by it, there is never anyone on it, but it is clearly
    there for people to at least walk on it. Take a look: (Sorry about the
    shaky camera work!) http://tinyurl.com/ozh2p 😄

    That's kinda what I figured. The average width of the "flat" area is
    only about 3 feet, so it would be fun to try it out. Funny thing is,
    it's right smack next to the police dept.!:eek:

    The "width" in itself isn't a problem at all...it's that the narrower
    -that- area is, (and it gets down to about 8" or less) the more chance
    there is of hitting your pedals/cranks against the rocks which form the
    sides of the path. 🙂

  6. Oh sorry...I thought you meant the tops of the rocks were 3 feet wide...
    Yeah...3 feet may make it a bit fun for muni though... A great
    challenge of balance.

  7. Looks awesome, bet you could gap across the path at a few points too.
