Pump track build

    Hi,

    I'm going to build a pump track out the back of the house. Large garden so plenty of space.

    I've been looking at various build on-line, the top surface I plan to use is 4mm to dust carboniferous limestone or quarry dust that I'll compressors using vibration /wacker plate.

    I'm unsure of what material to use to shape the track clay / soil / stone etc.
    I can get / use soil and easily shape it to what I want, but would have the issue of weeds growing up from it.

    Any ideas?

    MiCk B. :-)

    My son has one. He used soil, shaped it, covered it with plastic to prevent weeds, then put down his quarry dust. It seemed to work for him.

    Cheers.

    Might go the soil / weed mesh / quarry dust route.

    Thanks,
