Paradise! Legalities suck these days but if you make the jumps inconspicuous you might not have a problem.

UH yea i think i see a track out there:)

So I recently moved from my very small twin home which was 2 minutes from crime infested West Philadelphia. The one thing I like about getting older is that you can make decisions about what you want to do, where you want to be etc...

I chose to move about 25 minutes away and to a place where you barely knew you had a neighbor let alone knew who they were. The house I bought is in a cul-de-sac with 3 other houses. It backs straight up to Chester creek and I own 2 acres of the woods that are literaly 50 feet off my deck.


Now, I couldn't have planned this any better. I was looking for a good place to ride my auburn that's close to home. A place where I could get down to what the bike is made for. Here is what I have 50 feet from my house.

I havn't got a chance to get down there yet with a bike because i've only been here a month or so. But I have a feeling it's going to be a great spot during the Summer. Would you guys make good use of this? Would you make a set of jumps? I'm afraid the local kids will come and someone may get hurt on my property?



One other thing it makes is a great back drop for bike pictures!

that GTs chain is so baggy tighten her up a bit

and built till you cant anymore,   start with a pump line and then work it up to bigger stuff.

keep the little ones rolling and the big ones on the air

I was thinking bonfires, BBQ's and beer down there but yeah, trails would be cool.

A half pipe would be dreamy.

Definitely NO Trespass signs and what we used to do with my half is put a big old chaing across. Maybe spray it blaze orange and hang flags on it and put across in front of any jumps you build.  That way you are at least trying to stop kids going back and jumping when you are not home.   I'd also say make friends with your neighbors so they can also keep an eye out for kids going back that way.  If you build it, they will show up.

First off, nice backyard.
Second, I'd invite me over to "test ride" and let you know if you should sell it to me
Then (this is a parody and not to be taken seriously) invite the admins and mods over to do their magic. Figure since everyone is blaming them for something or another we might as well too lol

But seriously look into this and let us all know what's involved.

Pump track!! Aren't you selling the Auburn right now though?

Your neighborhood looks so pieceful.  Wish mine open like that

No trespassing signs are a joke, you need to "Post" your land to really keep people out. If you build any kind of trails and jumps on your land you can find the standard liability release forms online, but all attendees need to be 18 or older to sign them.

PS I live not to far from you, and would love to hit some trails and dirt jumps.

What he said.  People put orange flags on chains and "No Trespassing" signs all day long and still get sued.....

Oh, I'd be into riding there too. 

Helltrack with a half pipe thrown in.

um i would tighten the chain on the pro performer

but like everyone says build some trails!!!!!

What I would do with that?

1. Build some trails with jumps,
2. Post NO Trespassing, Call insurance like previously mentioned.
3. Do some occasional target practice with the 12ga or pistol just to keep others informed of your power
4. ride and have fun and enjoy your paradise!
