Mountain Biking - Building Backyard Course

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes.

I am wanting to build a backyard course for practicing doing wheelies on logs, riding though close together logs, riding planks to work on balance etc. Does anyone have any suggestions, plans pictures etc.

How big is your back yard and how much are you willing to spend?
I have a rather big backyard. I don't want to spend that much. Give me ideas and how much they would cost.
This is in the city so you can get a general idea of my area.

DO you have a pick up truck? If so, run down to your local lumber store and look through the dumpster. Make sure you ask if you can. Get creative, try to use natural features of your yard, like stumps, rocks, dips, hills. I set something up in my back yard like that, cost me no money, and i basically played connect the dots from stumps to rocks using 2x4's and cinder blocks we had laying around.
