  1. Thanks, usefull link...like them im in it for the sport not the money. so a non profit making venue sounds best and should receive more help.
  2. Hello All, I have started the ball rolling for a new trials park located in Swadlincote,Derbys Just off the main A511 Burton on Trent to Ashby de la zouch road, which joins the M42 about 2 miles away. The land is approx 10 acres total having about 6 usable for trials the site is a disused railway embankment and cutting and having done trials myself and taking advice from other riders it would be a good all round ability site. I now own the land and need to start the feasibility study to see if it financially will pan out, as I am sure you are all aware of the hurdles needed to complete this type of project. If possible I would like to know how many riders there are in this catchment area that would use such a park for practise, what sort of fee is acceptable. Has anybody recently undertaken a similar venture elsewhere in the UK that could advise me? Has anybody received help from a local council or official organisation EG: ACU or AMCA etc? This project is a personal venture and not my full time occupation, I have a love of the sport having ridden MX for the last 27 years, also doing enduro, mountain biking and recently Trials, wish I had started earlier with the trials. An exact location will not be given as I do not want the land to be used unlawfully, I will not have time to answer the when, how or if questions as it’s in very early stages and I really need constructive help. Thanks for reading, Mark.
