This is a great venue. You can hire adults/kids bikes/helmets and take a ride around the wonderful track.
The parking for this place is a joke single carriage way to the place. no body cares about the residence who live ther. and the van on the double lines. one guy couldn't get his caravan home because of the cars parked all the way down the road and on corners. Please if you read this park properly in the car park provide. All the cars on the left of the road are parked from the white van down to the complex witch isn't fair on the residents.
Very organised, drinks good reasonably priced
GREAT facility...just a shame they have to mix in children's time with adults. I love that kids are learning to ride a bike in a safe place but the parents accompanying them don't stick to the left so other riders are having to slam on the brakes or two sets of parents and kids together are blocking the entire width of the track. Absolutely brilliant place to go riding but there needs to be a specific under 10s hour and then open track as it just causes huge frustration.
Huge amount of groundwork going on at the moment. The whole place is changing but hopefully the pitches will be brilliant when it's all finished.
