New trails started in saint john bike park

Well it took a while but we have finally started the Shamrock trails here in saint john. situated in shamrock park in the north end. Big thanks to Matt Colpitts for the designs (he was one of the guys who did the crabb dh trail "mini world cup") and a huge crew that came out for the first build day. This is going to be a city park, what you are seeing if the beginner trail, with a blue and black trail also being built, the black one will basicly be a skills park with some extra gnar lines along a huge 150ft tall utah style rock ridge. As a member of the executive committee for the project i couldn't be happier. Here are some pics, we got about 300ft of trail cut and groomed in 5 hours incl lunch break
