The Crown Estate said:
"Over recent months the Bikini Line trail has evolved to offer a more challenging and technical trail for experienced riders. Unfortunately, this has resulted in an increase in the number of incidents linked with irresponsible riding and use by inexperienced riders. There have also been increased incidents of antisocial behaviour and high levels of littering in the surrounding area. After careful consideration, The Crown Estate have made the decision to close the trail. We will be working with our trail builder to remove the current features and look to redesign the route in line with the other Red graded trails."

We will update as we hear more on the plans going forward.
