Rocks & Wheels Pump Track in Dalbeattie will offer a national-level floodlit pump track with a separate beginner loop as part of a new cycling and bouldering hub opening in 2026.
Velosolutions UK recently completed a 116 m asphalt pump track at Alveston in South Gloucestershire. The track features two 180° berms and a double berm inner loop for creative line choice and transfers.
Dig crew, take a bow 🤔 The Dyfi Bike Park team has been flat out on their latest DEWALT project — a freeride-style build inspired by snow parks, blending progression and style into a line designed for everyone to jam on.
Sam Hodgson brought the digger skills to carve the dirt; now Alf Raynor’s crafting the wooden features to pull the line together. Coming soon 👀

Forestry England are set to build a new beginner-friendly Pedal and Play trail at Sherwood Pines with Bike Track, joining sites at Cannock Chase, Hicks Lodge and High Lodge to help young riders build skills before moving onto full MTB trails.
Singletrack’s Crowdcube raise has topped £59,718 from over 170 investors — passing its £40k goal and underlining the depth of support within its community. As noted in Shifting Gears: MTB Media Faces a Changing Landscape, independent titles are navigating a tougher market, but the success of this raise shows there’s still an appetite among readers to back the outlets they value.
Although we may operate for similar eyeballs, we want to see independent MTB media like Singletrack around for the long run — diversity in voices keeps the scene strong.
