Looking good my friend . By the way, I live in Illinois too

[SeanTheCyclist]

Haha, I see there. Is that you in the pic? Get out and ride much?

Alright, so was able to get away from homework and school for a little bit to add about an hour's work onto the track:

Added a good 10-15 seconds onto it. Another loop-de-loop too.

EDIT: Also added some detail, including some background mountains at the beginning. Should I continue with those throughout the track?

love the bunny!

How could that be me when there are no mountains around us. Nah. I don't ride dirt much. I ride street and park mostly.

Hahaha, I got bored and started drawing some random animals.

I need to get out back on the trails, but my bike needs tuning and it's 30 degrees.

Oh yea, I suppose we are kind of missing that.

Luckily I live near a river, so I can get some decent short climbs out here.

Just wanted to let people know that I just broke the 55k barrier. With the amount of detail I'm expecting to do, this could be around 75k.

Alright, so my actual track part is complete. On to the detail. Do the mountains work well? Should I continue with them? Also, can anyone direct me towards some trees that would work well for my course?

Thanks, will work on those. I'll be slowly adding detail over the next week. Probably. School can be a bit of a you-know-what, and agreed to hang out with some friends over the weekend.

So the track part is functional, and I added 7 goals, which are semi-difficult in my opinion.

You shouldn't put goals at the beginning of the platform because I jumped over all of them. Put them in the middle or on the end of the jump. Also, if you're putting goals in the air after a jump, be sure it's possible to get it in every jump. I don't mind that, but it will annoy the hell out of database noobs so if you want good ratings, I suggest to put them on easier places.

And fix the thickness of the first wodden structure so it suits the rest of the track.

Sounds good. I personally wanted to place some difficult goals, but I'll make them easier. The first wooden structure you see was kind of an experiment gone wrong, I didn't realize I still had that in there...

some of the jumps are way of every time I overjump the 6th jump and the last one. Also on the next track don't post so many previews, I'm getting sick of playing the track. Post a picture everynow and then and maybe one or two previews.
