Burlish Woodland has been the home of Burlish Dirt Jumps for over 30 years and the vision was to transform the 16-acre woodland into a new protected cycling facility.

The Rosie Route - Green

A 500m family trail/trike trail that's 2.5m wide with minor ascents and descents. This green-graded trail is suitable for all wheel sizes and disability-adapted bikes and trikes.
It features avoidable elements like small table jumps and skinny log balance beams.
In memory of Rosie Young, a local young woman who had a great love of bikes, a really beautiful person inside and out, her talents and personal qualities were endless; above all she had great ambition to help others.

Cooper's "Let's Go Racing" Dual slalom track - Blue

A blue-graded, two-lane track designed for head-to-head gravity-assisted riding. Suitable for most ages and abilities, all features can be rolled, with jump combinations and transfer lines available for more advanced riders.
In memory of Andrew Cooper a great 4X and downhill racer and commentator. A man who left our sport and world far too soon, a great energy and fun loving person who loved nothing more than riding, supporting others and seeing everyone having a great time.
