This weekend we had 1 luck guest for the Ride & Cut weekend.  We had a good day cleaning up some down trees on one of the trails in Norikura on Saturday and then Sunday it rained.  We ended up having a nice slow breakfast and then working on a new picnic bench in the NORTHSTAR basement. We are planning to build 3 more benches this spring so look for them this summer during MTB camps.

Today I took a group of kids for a hike down the Sanbondaki Trail (Ko-risu-no-michi). I have not hiked down that trail in a long time and am more use to riding my Mt. Bike on it but we still had a good time hiking in the rain. I also hiked a section of trail for the first time and it was so beautiful.

New Bike Toy

By on April 30, 2010 | Category: Blog,Local Fun,MTB | Tags: , , , , , | No Comments

[jp]私たちは去年からずっとあるものを作りたいと思っていました。21cmの棒を25cmのコンクリートブロックの土台に置きバニーホップメーターを作りました!5cmずつ調整出来て、高さ60cmまでいけます。写真で見て分かる様にとても簡単に使えて、もし失敗しても壊れにくいです。昨日、私は60cmそして、せいやは40cmのバーを飛びテストもばっちりでした。

皆さん次回ノーススターにくる時は、ぜひこのバニーホップメーターをトライしてみて下さい。[/jp]

[en]We had been talking about wanting to build a real bunny hop high jump kit last season but never got around to building it. So the other day Seiya and I went down to the home center and got some parts. We used 2 15cm cement block and 2 1m long fence poles. We then cut the fence poles to fit into the cement blocks and drilled holes for dowel to go up the poles ever 5cm for the hight bar to rest on. As you can see in the photos and the video it’s pretty easy to use and if you hit it the bar just fall off and nothing breaks. Yesterday was the first test and all went well. I was able to clear the 60cm mark once and Seiya got up to the 40cm mark.

Next time you visit NORTHSTAR you can give it a try and see how high you can bunny hop. Thanks for reading.[/en]
