There's a mountain bike magazine that made a movie - here's a teaser - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QomZf1a2IGg
Something like this should be done in Tassie. Course, they'd need to build the tracks first...

So, how does somewhere as pristine and beautiful as Tasmania get tracks like that built?

Forestry coupes, I've seen some beauties!! Now that will give our out of work forest workers something to do...

Hard work
tourism focussed agancies
stakeholder negotiation
old track use / upgrade
good trail design
IMBA
dedication
A user group thatwill build and maintain, not just expect 'them' to fix stuff


Same as the guys in Tassie who are building trails and working with gummint.
