Blue Bench: The Resurrection
After a 3 year hiatus the bench is back. A long over due rebuild is currently taking place Overhaulin’ the entire set of trails and not just maintenance, but a full rebuild: moving berms back, knocking lips down, No short cuts.
The trails will be bigger and better then ever before. All thanks to one thing… a new water source. The life blood of the trails.
Christmas Eve the homie Sammy and I dug all night till we hit the water table. Filling a 1000 gallon reservoir, we dug it by hand. This thing refills itself every night. Giving us access to unlimited water.
In 2014 our creek ran completely dry, crippling the trails and making it almost impossible to build anything. I was stealing water from the neighbors and knew that it was only a matter of time before we had to let the spot go.
But that all changed when we dug our own well. Bluebench will soon be back up and running full speed !
