In this latest YouTube video, I take on the challenge of building a massive wooden berm on my backyard MTB trail. The berm is an impressive 25 meters long and required over 2 tons of wood to construct. To get the necessary materials, I had to find fallen trees from previous storms and use my tractor to drag them to my new timber mill.

Halfway through the video, I encounter some frustration with the mill, and I decide to take a break and ride the Cooma mountain bike trails. During this break, I have a crash, but thankfully I wasn't hurt. I twisted my MTB handlebars.

After completing the wooden berm, I invite two friends to test ride it with me, and we all agree that it is a massive success. The berm is smooth and provides riders with plenty of speed. The structure is made of Australian eucalyptus, making it incredibly strong and rot-resistant.

Throughout the video, viewers will also encounter Australian wildlife such as spiders, goannas, leeches, and echidnas.

As a woodworker and mountain biker, I took on this build with great enthusiasm, and it took over a month to construct, mostly due to the time it took to gather and mill the wood into slabs. However, the end result is a spectacular wooden berm that adds a thrilling element to my backyard trail.

Overall, this video is perfect for those who love mountain biking and woodworking, and it showcases the process of creating a massive wooden berm that provides endless amounts of fun and excitement.

For those interested the bike I am riding is the Marin Rift Zone Carbon 2, and it shreds.
