Can anyone help?
We have a couple of strimmers but no other gardening equipment on site. We can help with fuel costs for strimmers and mowers.
If you can spare a few hours it would really make a difference. 🥰

We have lots of exciting events and opportunities coming up so keep an eye open here and share the news with family and friends.

A change of plans 👀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The upcoming Velosolutions UCI Pump Track World Championship Qualifier on the 14th June 2026, will now be taking place at one of Scotland's newest pump tracks in Dalbeattie and it's a whopper. Be sure to get the date in the diaries!

This 280m length pump track will make for an intense day of racing, complete with a range of features including rollers, triples, quads, step ups, step downs, S turns and a split line option.

The pump track is still closed to the public and will be opening just ahead of the qualifier.

This mega event and project has all been made possible by the team at .and.wheels71, who have developed an incredible sports facility.

This will also be the first year that youth riders have the chance of advancing to the Velosolutions Pump Track World Youth Challenge in Sweden!

More information on the event and registration to follow on Monday, but make sure you book out the weekend and share this post on your story! 📲
