    Solo building is hard, but it’s worth it! Cheaper than gym and you can see what you have done ✅ at the end of the session ❤. This edit makes me want to get out and doing again 🎉

    It reminds me how our ancestors used to build all sorts monuments simply out of stones and dirt for a religious or other reason. And how do we know about it thousands of years later? Because they're still there. Biking aside, you might be doing something that will have a mark on this planet for a very long time :)
    (even though i know, many of your trails get destroyed by the wood industry)

    Hi! I have a huge question, to make trailbuilding there you need any type of permission, title or something?
    Im from Spain and its hard make trails cause its "ilegal" you need permisión of councils, some public organism
    Thanks if you can give me an answer

    Hey Mark, in Canada are you aloud to just build your trails anywhere, is this private land, or does the park service not care?

    • @MarkMatthewsMTB
      @MarkMatthewsMTB  5 місяців тому +1

      It depends on the location, I would never build in a park. Mountain bikers have land use agreements with local forestry here in BC and we also have crown land

  • @leotenno4534
    @leotenno4534 5 місяців тому

    Why don't you put logs under the dirt, so that you wouldn't need to stack that much dirt on the landing? Cool build nonetheless.

    • @MarkMatthewsMTB

    Yoo, really nice to see the timer on the bottom left, that's sth i wanted for a long time ^^. Btw i wanted to ask: How long do you dig on avg per session, cuz moving those amounts of dirt must be hella exhausting!

    • @MarkMatthewsMTB
      @MarkMatthewsMTB  5 місяців тому +1

      I try to go out for a full 8 hours. When you take away driving, getting into the zone, setting up shots and taking breaks, about 5ish of that is actual dirt moving
