The rebuilt Bikini Line at Swinley Forest has now reopened following a full redesign by Earthworx Trail Co. The updated trail now runs as a single continuous line, with no pull-out points or mid-trail entry spots. Riders are asked to start from the top and ride the track through in one go, which helps maintain the intended speed into the features along the descent.

According to the builders, the trail has only just reopened after the rebuild, so the surface is still bedding in with a few softer patches in places. Early feedback suggests it is already running well overall.
The change marks a clear shift in character for this part of Swinley, turning what was previously a jump-line style trail into a more berm-focused descent with features dotted throughout the run.
Earthworx also state that cameras are monitoring the area around the trail. These are intended to discourage antisocial behaviour, littering, and the creation of unofficial pull-out spots, drop-in points or alternative lines. Riders are asked not to modify the trail or surrounding area, as doing so risks damage to the trails and potential restrictions on riding in the Clubhouse woods.
