mr ailsbury Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Thought it might be useful to start a thread where people can post screen grabs/photos of riding spots they've seen on web edits/non-trials videos but can't find, then if you know where it is, help out and reply with a google maps link/postcode etc to help lost riders find their way! I'll start it off... I know its in London, 99% sure its somewhere near the eye but I can't bloody find it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 I think it's along from the Tate Modern? I only found it by accident one time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 For the record it's not exactly rideable right now and the wooden bit that sticks out around the top is long gone. Still a bit around there though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Used to be alot better when the concrete blocks were there too. Now its a 'get up the wall, turn around, drop off the wall' sort of deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 There is a lot to ride in london - just spend the day exploring and remember that the scariest estates have the best stuff to ride, usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross McArthur Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 For those that know Glasgow, Is this spot.... https://fbcdn-sphoto...119835033_o.jpg ...really close to this spot? https://fbcdn-sphoto...471004709_o.jpg Cheers. Yup. Its in the city centre, a hop skip and a fart from George Sq, going east. You're looking for "Rotten Row Gardens". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete.M Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Cheers, I should've mentioned that I found it the other day. Haven't been out west much yet, might be a plan for next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's more further out east too. The Furthest i'd go is the flats at the Tennents factory though. You could spend a day alone riding the west end...Depending on your ability (theres some big lines to be had) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
