Up to 50km of singletrack and various others types of trails are being/waiting to be built!!

The development should be finished for this summer if everything goes to plan. What is needed though, is people's help! Labour is the main thing, to construct the trails and put the effort in. But also in word of mouth, to hype it up as much as possible and get a huge interest in the site.

In April ATR Cycles along with a Cafe and FREE bike wash will be open on site to offer the usual things you'd expect, including 'Imediate repairs' and 'hire bikes'!!

Please people lets put Gisburn Forest on the map and turn this amazing amount of potential into reality!!

Or call ATR Cycles on 01254 825896

At the moment there are three loops in the forest, short medium and long.
I've been up building with a few customers/friends, putting in DH sections, jump areas and new technical singletrack.
The first new loop that is planned is 27km long and will be all singletrack. At the moment we've go over £300,000 for it, thats for the stone and bridges etc. The rest is what other people are allowed to build, I know a few people are going up on Saturday to start on the Northshore parts.
On the map I put up ATR Cycles Tosside Branch is where most of the new routes will start from.
Shelly yes you idiot its next to Stocks reservoir, some of the trails will go round it. PS Say hi to Fiona and the babby. Hope she ok!
