Hey dudes and dudettes,

Just moved up to Newcastle from Middlesbrough and would like to meet some DH riders to session with, or anyone at uni up here and bring their bike?

Mainly ride Hamsterley and Chopwell, as well as Carlton / Silton etc.

Have transport as well so can provide lifts places - and since i'm a uni riding during the week is all good aswell Smile

cheers

Nice one mate! I'm in the city centre aswell, just behind the gate. Keep in touch once you've got a bike sorted and we can arrange some chopwell / hamsterley sessions!

Just moved to sunderland, i'm a spanish dh rider on a study abroad programme, my bike will be here in 2 days.
Got no transport, but got drivers license so maybe I can help with the uplifts!

Hey guys,

Im in the same boat, ive just got back into the sport after shattering my anckle and looking to hook up with some other riders to get the know the spots around this area more, im in west monkseaton. Looking for freeride, dirt, slopestyle and DH. Im up for a ride if there is enough interest in one (sunday would be best Smile ) Also im looking at working to rebuild at Holywell dene. There used to be trails there by the look of them so im looking to rebuild it all back up over the winter if anyone wants to help? its all on a slope about 100 meter run about 25 meters across so could be a killer spot. Keep me updated if you guys want to meet up and get a ride on the go

Thanks Guys

i.was thinking about getting some people together to build up the jumps and make some new lines if your up for? i dont want to just start digging on someone elses spot though so as long as people dont mind i was going to spend the winter building aiming for around 20 tabletops some drops and some cross over lines?

wey aye just go down and build. my 2 pals pretty much single handedly built and maintained that place but its been neglected for a while now so feel free to add on. theres shovels n shit stashed down there but i dont know where exactly. ill find out if u like, save you carrying stuff. try and leave the trees alone tho and bag up any rubbish.
any dog walkers say anything you just tell em to f*ck right off.
