In a forest that has mourned the loss of some real classics this year the trail fairies have been hard at work again. Watching the needless destruction of art is never easy, and these trails really are art, transcending the predictable roll of trail centre gravel, these rooty, steep, stepped, crafted lines flow down the hillside complimenting and enhancing the natural morphology. No doubt reeling from witnessing hours of pain and love senselessly ripped apart, this time the fairies have come back smarter and stealthier, hiding away in the steeper, less accessible sectors and yet still occasionally brushing close to the main tracks in a subtle middle finger to the uneducated, the destroyers. Maybe these trails will also eventually go the way of the 'one er' and other great trails as they become better known, as word spreads and the order is signed but you can be sure that by then the next project will be well underway.
3 views of a new secret - twisty, rocky with berms in all the right places!
The fairies care little for politics, for outdated, unenforceable bye-laws, for the fun police. They clearly care about their art, about hitting lines hard, about pushing the limits a bit and for that we have to be thankful. Keep up the good work lads....
