A new beginner-friendly jump line has been built at Woburn Bike Park as work continues ahead of the bike park’s official opening. The new tabletop line was created to give newer riders a progression option between small rollers and larger gap jumps, with a series of smaller tabletops, berms and split-line features designed to build confidence. The line includes rollers into a 5ft tabletop before progressing into larger jumps and alternative routes, with testing carried out by both young riders and adult beginners to show the track can be rolled safely as well as jumped.
The latest update also hints at further future additions across the site, including potential pro lines, events and expanded jump sections once the park officially opens in the coming weeks.
