Hey up folks.  A general call for help (as posted up originally on the SingletrAction forum):

Having been up with Knacker and Ell last night I confirm we're now doing this dig day at Buck Woods in Thackley. The spot and parking (on road side) is just here:

http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=417570&y=438949&z=120&sv=417570,438949&st=4&ar=y&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf&dn=716&ax=417570&ay=438949&lm=0

You can't really miss the spot from the road (just after the cricket ground on the left and just before the footie ground on your right). There's signs for a stables up there as well. You will see a green shipping container on the LHS of the road and immediately after it a low steel gate (green) with a bike gate / A frame next to it. Walk through this and the skills spots is about 50 m staraight ahead. You can't miss it <img title="Wink" src="http://singletraction.frankencrank.com/phpBB3/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif" />

If you get stuck give me a call on 07766 504913.

Usual kick off from 10 am (although there will probably be people there earlier). Tools needed are just about everything and spares if you have them. I suggest you tag anything you bring to avoid it getting inadvertently misplaced amongst others. The work will mostly be digging and shaping (hopefully with some mechanical support) so shovels, mattocks, spades, tampers and rakes area all good. Barrows and buckets always good too.

For anyone keen to take a look the spot is accessible to the public 24/7 so just swing by. Ed from Crosstrax plus others will be up there with bikes, tools and beer on Friday night from about 6:30 / 7:00 and anyone interested is welcome to swing by then as well.

There are likely to be digging and shaping sessions afterwards as well, probably weekday evenings.

Any questions post up.

Cheers

Edit: It's not an FE site so there's no need for folks to be STA members. This is a "anyone who's keen just rock up" type of project.

Edite, edit: The other thread with some pics is here:

The pics aren't great and things have moved on since they were taken.

Better to come and see it in the flesh <img title="Cool" src="http://singletraction.frankencrank.com/phpBB3/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif" /> 

Original forum thead is over here.

Well spotted

This Friday (5th) from about 7:30 and then Sunday (7th) definitely from 10:00 (although there maybe others around earlier).

Cheers

Sorry for bailing out last night but the pain in my hand just would not ease up. Thanks and I will be returning to Hirst wood to give that drop in another go!!

Paul.

Someone on STW has just posted this; http://www.leeds.gov.uk/page.aspx?pageidentifier=a81baad9-6341-4f49-8358-aa3b6410c5da

 It's Leeds Bike Week  13th - 21st June.

Sturmey - Hope your hand recovers for Mayhem!

I don't think I'll be rushing back to try that drop off again but shame you missed out on the rest of the ride and the beer.

 Cheers for the outing Greg, some lovely stuff in Cottingley woods.

I wasn't able to get out this morning as I had hoped, so if anyone is around this afternoon (I'm flexible om start time) and wants to do a loop from Alwoodley/Adel/Golden Acre area then let me know.

Cheers
