🚧 Rogate will now close from 13th April 2026 for forestry works

After weeks of waiting β€” and previously being told we’d close on 2nd March β€” B1KE now had confirmation that works will begin later than planned.

The request to stay open until after the second round of the Root 1 Series and the Easter holidays has been approved.

βœ… Rogate will remain open for another 6 weeks
🏁 Root 1 Round 2 will take place on 12th April
🚧 Rogate will now close from 13th April 2026

The closure is to allow for essential forestry and felling works to take place. The closure is currently expected to last around 12 weeks, although timelines depend on the extent of rebuild work required once felling is complete.

Members have been contacted directly. At this stage, no final decision has been made on membership extensions, with further clarity promised once reopening dates are confirmed. Other B1KE parks remain open, and memberships continue to be valid across the wider network.
