Seeing as there is no racing (apart from the grands @ crewe) Martin and myself will be at the track on Saturday 21st to do some work on the track.
Any assistance would be very appreciated.

It's your track so help us get it tip top.

Transport to races - Minibus is now booked to all regionals this year and other major events.

Regular training - Friday night gates and Saturday training is also in place

Track to be made to national standard - we have had a track builder in to look at the track and give us a quote,the council have agreed to the changes and we are currently waiting to hear if we have been granted olympic funding (we do have other support and options if this isnt granted or enough money given).

Start gate- we have a quote for the Bensink gate and this will be included with the track changes

Bikes & helmets for riders to borrow - we are currently working on a finance application for this

Healthier and more affordable catering - the council are now providing the catering for the park which includes jacket potatoes, bacon rolls, salads, pasta etc. - A birdie tells me we will have an ice cream van for our regional too  

More race shirts - Caroline has been working on this and we hope to be in a position to order more race shirts this week... we are also looking at race trousers too.

Flood lighting for track - this is something that has only recently been brought up ... we will see if there is enough budget when the track is done, if not we will look at seperate funding for this.

Go ride and club mark - we have obtained Go ride and are currently working towards club mark accreditation.

Holding a National - We hope to get a national standard track this year then we can look at applying for a national at Dagenham next year  

So come on then, sensible suggestions below please.

So far we have hardcore for a base and a grey clay from a nearby quarry for shaping the jumps.
The clay goes super slippery when wet so we are looking to mix in sand.

What I'd really like to know is what to put on top to :
a) make it more hardwearing
b) make it grippy when wet.

A friend of mine told me that the top surface at the BaD track is a good option. Anyone know what it is or a specification on the material?

We have diggers, small roller and a 4T dumper, 100T hardcore, 80T clay, 20T sand and are building something similar to the pic below. Any advice, tips on construction or techniques please send them over before end of weekend.
