thinking about buying another DMR very soon, i used to have my own trails back in the day
it took years of digging, not prepared to do that again, easy option is to rent a mini digger 
any idea's who rent's these ? do i need a licence ? what will it cost for a 1-2 tonner ?

the mini ones on your land need no license
Unless on public land or a site or something.
If you do it il rebuild my 24 7 dark angel and come round

You should all come up to Chicksands this is right by me.
Although after 10 years of riding SPD clipless pedals, I'm changing to flats it's like riding a bike again so don't come here unitl I'm used to them.
Stavs, you can rent mini-diggers with driver too although it won't be as much fun, you'll get it done in half the time

deano, was having a goose at a few trail site's last night jees things seem to have got a bit bigger 
got a few locations in mind, need to be tucked away from little tike's who find smashing things up fun 
also i would prefer a location with some natural stuff there allready as starting with a blank canvas IE flat ground, is boring !
i have driven a few diggers at work, so i should be fine to rent one, found a company who will do a 1 tonne for the wk-end for £200 all inc
