Thanks mate, only one short section completed, unfortunately tons more to do
Never mind, the locals that walked up through (young family of four) had heard of the wonderful volunteering that the Devon TRF had completed before, thanked us this time as well
To be honest there is only one digger track that moved, that was the lonely one half way up the green road, just before Jacks hand written sign.
The stream section we would like motor cycles to ride needs a tweak but the M. cycles are riding the bank
All the works previously completed by those wonderful volunteers is holding up really well (apart from the one digger track mentioned)
The main point is Wacky's plan is working
There is one sleeper (one we didn't replace or alter) rotted out, snapped, can't find one half this now leaves a wide river crossing the locals have to traverse, not good, planning in progress
You can see in most places where the storm water has washed over to the full width of the green road, scary amount of storm water, plenty of tree roots exposed on the main drag right up through even where they weren't exposed before..
It's in desperate need of a foliage cut....new sleeper, tons & tons of gravel/stone needs pushing around & used for building platforms for sleeper/s
One Ash tree we left on one of the early sleeper crossings is causing you to lean out past it, tree getting bigger in diameter? then I though that could also be my expanding belly, need a second opinion...I'll ask barky
All in all i've taken on a big project with an effective plan, its working...
A MASSIVE thanks to all those Devon TRF volunteers who worked/volunteered on this project for well over 2 yrs is amazing, without that help I truly believe the surface of this green road would have been lost, washed away, gone, closed, TTRO'd for sure, locals would have been moaning & blaming motor cycle use.
So...special thanks to Devon TRF volunteers in the past, present, future, you've helped save a superb green road..
