What's the status of the downhill trails? Are there any? What are they like? I'm debating whether to come on Saturday, or whether to do the practice day of the UK Bike Park race.

The DH trails are all on hold at the moment.

We had to concentrate on the 4x and shore as well as the Dirt Jumps so the DH will be on hold for a while. Will keep you posted.

Is the 4x opening weather permitting, or does it ride okay in all conditions?

Drainage issues have been addressed in a big way and the track should be good in all weather.

Hi. I have heard that you need to be 16 to get into the free event without a parent/guardian. As I am 16, does this mean I can be responsible for and supervise U16's?

You can ride, but you will need a parent or guardian to sign the disclaimer on yourbehalf. Once they have done that you can ride all day.

hey, can you ride the shore lines if they are not finished? also, is the £10 all inclusive for as long as you want, or is there a time/section restriction? also how much will be complete by 1-2 June? and, because it is a weekday can you go in the park.
cheers.

The shore lines are partially finished, and come completed sections are ridable, however the lines will be completed in time for the Summer Ride Festival, July 25-26th, call 07506583859 for info and bookings.

The entry fee is £10 for all day riding.

All I can say is there will be some ridable shore by June, but that it will not be completed by that time. Also the park is currently only open on weekends and school holidays till the end of Sept.

the ministry of schools (or somethin like that) I think says that 1 June is a holiday, so I guess you'd be open then, right?

Ahh, Yes there is a bank holiday on the 1st of June after the half term week. Therefore we will be open on the 1st June.
