It’s survey time 👍

“The UK Trail Project is a UK-wide project which aims to help improve the sustainability and security of the mountain bike trail network across the country.

The first step of the project is to develop a UK wide ‘Right Trail, Right Place, Right People, Right Time’ report through an audit of the current number and position of trails, trail groups and associations in each country providing a deeper understanding of the current challenges and opportunities to improve the management of the trail network. The report will also detail the pressures and challenges associated with supporting the trail network, particularly, for land managers/owners.

Today sees the launch of three surveys to inform this report and create a map of the breadth of trails across the country.

We urge every rider, trail builder, trail association member, bike park/trail centre manager and land owner or manager to complete the survey relevant to them and lets ensure this audit is a true picture of the UK trail network”

Some trail digging has been discovered on National Trust land just off Robin Lane near Troutbeck (see attached map). Digging “secret” trails is always going to be a contentious issue regardless of where it is, but digging on National Trust land is an especially bad idea, even more so when you put signposts up and dig large pits on open fell side 🤦‍♂️.

If you know who is responsible, please tell them that The National Trust are aware and have firmly asked them to stop.

Hopefully we can avoid the same sort of debacle as Farleton.

Thanks

Looks like something worth getting involved in Angela Wakefield Peter Leeson (if you aren’t already!!)
