hello there.
i just signed up today and thought this might be a good way to find some riders in the northeast. i'm from sunderland and the people i learned to ride with have long since packed in and dissapeared. i know there's a handful of tracks but everything is miles away and driving around and riding on your own is no good. i don't mind travelling and i'm well up for building stuff if anyone has anything going on anywhere.
any pointers?

cheers

my very secret dh spot,needs building on but its also a public bridleway and old roman road so not sure how much building can be done without pissing people of.

only bummer is its roughly a minute down and 10 minutes back up.

i aint been there for ages but it's by far the biggest, emptiest , rockiest, nastiest potential spot anywhere in the northeast.
