my friend mark and i biked an hour and 40 minutes to do this gap and when we got there we were really sceptical and thinking that we wouldnt do it because its quite large ( to us) but i guinea pigged it and man was it ever fun.
im the one in the blue pb shirt(only one clean) and knee pads and mark is with the armour and shinpads

keep in mind this is my first big thing and if you have something bad to say dont say it at all, and from what ive been told and my own personal judgement, i believe the size is around 15 up and 15-20 out although certain angles make it look really small

That's not really a roadgap... There's no road... But good riding and nice air. I like the inrun jump over the tracks.

yea true its not really a road gap but it does resemble one with the flat part and whatnot, now since i said that people ar going to argue saying its a stepdown with a flat part...

Sweet road gap. I am still yet to hit my first one. Well done, that one looks pretty scary with that jump.

oh i know the kicker is huge for that gap its like 3 ft tall and if you boosted it it would prolly shoot you another 2-3ft, so my first time i just kinda rode off it not really pulling up or anything

I would imagine that a road gap would by any jump/drop/hat where the gap had a road, or multiple roads, in it.

road gaps usualy dont have a big phat kicked as a lip, do they? Stepdown.

Nice work lads!
I wonder if there was a road there at one time and it's just been reclaimed by the grass?? Call it a road gap. Isn't a road gap a spot where the a bank has been cut into so that there is a 'gap' in the slope that you can clear on your bike? Looks like the same thing to me.
Looks like fun too.

nah there wasnt a road there before, just a weird form of a hill, then Nick Quinn and Ron penney(i think) built it.
ive been there once before yesterday and i pussied out of it, but then i came back and hit er up and it felt sooo good

Nice way to rock it man, can I come practice on that one that looks perfect. Road gaps scare the crap out of me and all the ones in my area are crazy.
Anyway good job
