Making it worth the drive to Gbg

We were working on the track this afternoon and I think you will find that it is worth the drive to Götet to race or watch. Here is a quick preview...

At the end of the long paved cykelväg section you come to Karlssons kurva which is a 90 degree left and up a short little hill. But, this hill is mud that you sink into about 2 cm. After that comes Chris Cross which I name after myself because I raked the leaves there and also because it goes back and forth in the forest with lots of slanted parts and corners that are banked the wrong way. Because we think LVG riders should also get to train MTB sometimes.

After that we come to Sven's masterpiece...let's called it Svennys stairs. The first 3 steps are at one distance and height but then it gets steeper and shorter for the last ones. =) And once you reach the top you get to ride down and immediately take a 90 degree right.

That is about all we managed but after this section it heads out to the grusplan which is full of water so that should do a bit of wheelsucking. The sand is in place also plus we have a grass section. After all this it was decided that a löphinder was not really necessary.

Let's see if Mattias has fixed an equally painful track for Ymercrossen tomorrow.
