Architrail (who did Ashton Court) have almost finished a new 'park' at Stockwood just outside of Bristol. It has a mini DH and pump track and looks sweet. Check it out here http://www.facebook.com/pages/Architrail/109472799129220

They'll be working on a pump track near the Cumberland Basin next.

there aren't any dirt jumps in Ashton court! But the upper quarry trail has just been rebuilt and is lush to ride. really fast. huge berms and stuff.

Belmont/Ashton hill plantation or whatever you wanna call it has a downhill run, with a road gap and a few other bits and pieces. i think it might be in need of some work though.

in Leigh woods there's some really fun downhill stuff, although really its more like super techy XC. really steep+tight hairpins and stuff. ask someone over there where the picnic bench/nicker trails are.


Dude, there are dirt jumps in ashton court. I rode them a few weeks ago

Ooooo man greenbank is pretty awsom... I was there like a couple of weeks back. Since I am pretty new in Bristol I went there on my own and surprisingly there was not a soul there. It seemed abandoned, needing some care. I was hitting branches at every corner Razz ... ;D

Is there like a particular day of the week where everyone comes about? I would suggest to bring some branch cutters to cut bushes and branches that are in the way ....???????

I been up there a few times when im not busy away with work. Needs a bit of TLC that place. Could be good wit some work. I never seen anyone up there when i been up. Started sorting out a few lips and stuff like that but needs a lot done. Give me a shout if anyone is headin up to do some work on it will get myself up there to help.

Ye man I'll be up for it.... we should like do it some Sunday... we need equipment like shovel and stuff to cut the bushes with....

Let me know if they're still there if you get a chance to have a look at them!

Don't have to be perfect; nothing a good TLC with a spade can't sort.
