Pennine Mountain Bike Association

We are a grouping of riders, clubs and volunteer trail building teams from across Lancashire and the North Pennines. We are all volunteers and the thing that brings us together is the belief that putting some effort into digging and diplomacy can make the future of mountain biking even better. We include the groups who have been supporting the development of trails at Gisburn, Rossendale (Lee and Cragg Quarries) and the West Pennine Moors (Healy Nab et al). We want to continue to improve these centres whilst supporting the development of new sites across the area. We also want to secure greater access to cross country routes and be a strong voice for riders at local and regional level. We work very closely with SingletrAction, who have shown what can be achieved by a strong and proactive group in Yorkshire, and we are affiliated to CTC and British Cycling.

So our aims are to

Open new routes.

Improve existing routes.

Solve local access problems.

Be a voice for mountain bikers.

Provide information to riders.

Support events.

Push for improved facilities at trail centres.

Support and train volunteer trail builders.
