November 21, 200718 yr I've decided to build my lad an obstacle course in our back field for him to practise on his Gas Gas Boy. I've managed to pick up 20 odd pallets and a cable drum so far and going to go to work on them this weekend with a hammer and a saw... Would REALLY appreciate some suggestions for other obstacles to use or build into our course. Thanks - Matt.
November 21, 200718 yr big tyres maybe from tracktors/diggers are great practise especialy when wet. fill the middle with stones to stop it moving, or to pile them up
November 21, 200718 yr My backyard sections I made these with pallets, logs and rocks all picked up for free. 4 pallets can be nailed together and braced to make a cube. 2 for a triangle. Pallets are nailed/screwed together to make a stack. Concrete blocks are under all pallets to prevent rotting.
November 22, 200718 yr Author Crikey!!! Looks like the Pikey's have moved in!!! That looks like a load of fun! Thanks for the suggestions guys. Will ask around a couple of farmer freinds for some old tractor tyres. Might need to get a digger in to make some holes and hills too. Ohhh the wife's going to be soooooooo pleased! She's already said NO to us dragging an old car into the field! Cheers - Matt.
November 23, 200718 yr Author Just for future reference for anyone else interested - loads of good ideas on this old kick start video: http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=...885468051222934 I'm off to buy an old transit van and some logs!!! Cheers - matt.
