Off to a competition yesterday - pulled lorry out and spotted a bit of flaking paint half way up the ramp. Investigated and my finger when through
The ramp is covered in that liquid rubber stuff and it had disguised the condition of the wood underneath and I must admit I had thought the outside of the ramp was lined in metal but obviously not.
My friend (who I share lorry with) had used it on Mon for a lesson. Only reason her boy had not gone through is because the damaged section was against the part of the metal frame and he must have had his foot across that.
Dead relieved that neither her boy or my girl were hurt but it does show how important it is to have a good poke about on a regular basis looking for damage.
