Inspiring community trails

Loads of jumps with short runs and an easy push up. It's they place to go to practice jumping that's for sure.

What do you like?

Something for everyone of all levels with Leicester city centre 2 minutes away so there is every thing you need and more within minutes plus a huge park surrounding the trails.

What could be improved?

I think the locals could make this place amazing if there local council gave some funding to help with the trails progression.

So many lines to transfer for here to there and everywhere.

Choice riding, choice scene.

What do you like?

Hit the berm on the pump track at full speed (death grip) coming off the fence line. Total g force whips you round there. Sic. Transfers on the tabletop line are mint too. So many lines all with a short push back up.

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
