Southampton Bike Park

Southampton Bike Park Handbuilt since 2012

Free to ride Southampton Bike Park is for all ages and abilities and is located at Southampton's Outdoor Sports Centre.

How it all began…

In 2011 Nick Clark approached Active Nation and Southampton City Council about constructing a safe training environment for people of all ages. In April 2012 Nick appointed Luis Arnold the new head of the project and the first ground was broken, over 100 volunteers turned up over the Easter weekend to get the build underway. All the trails are being constantly tuned by our dedic

ated trail builders. Opening hours

Southampton Bike Park is open 7 days a week but partially closed over winter due to the weather. Parking

We encourage cycling to the park but free parking is available onsite and in the surrounding area. Location

THEY WILL BULLDOZE RYAN'S LEGACY. We have until 31st December to save Tirpentwys Trails forever. This is an emergency.

This isn't just about trails. This is about a promise. When Ryan Bullimore poured his heart and soul into the Welsh hillside, he wasn't just building jumps; he was building a community. This place was his life's passion, a legacy tragically sealed on the very tracks he loved.

For years, we, the volunteers, have honoured his memory with thousands of hours of unpaid work. Our success, the very thing that made this place so special, attracted official attention and with it, a mountain of soul-crushing red tape. To survive, we were forced to pay for thousands of pounds worth of reports and surveys, and it has wiped us out. We now face a final, non-negotiable shortfall of £3,500, and we have until 31st December to find it.

Let us be absolutely clear. If we fail, this isn't a setback. It is the end. The C.I.C. will be forced to dissolve, and the trails—every berm, every jump that Ryan dreamed of—will be flattened by bulldozers. Ryan's legacy will be physically erased from the hillside. For good.

Over 480 of you have donated before to get us this far, and we are eternally grateful. Now, everything we have built together is on the line. We have fought as hard as we can; now, only you can stop this from happening. To close this final, devastating gap, we need 140 people to become heroes today and donate £25 to fund the last reports and save the trails.

Every second counts. The bulldozers are waiting. Your donation is the only thing standing in their way. Please, click the link below to donate NOW and be the hero that saves Ryan's legacy.

Thank you all.

Jason Bullimore.

Posting on behalf of OX trails:

Hi everyone, the Oxfordshire Trail Association (OX Trails) is fundraising and we need your help! We’re looking to raise £5,000 to help us with our start up costs (Public Liability Insurance, safety training, website hosting, events shelter, digging and vegetation tooling and more). Those that live in the County know how lacking it is for dedicated cycling trails, tracks and leisure facilities and OX Trails has ambitions to change that and change the landscape of off road cycling in our area - but we can’t do it without your help. Our first two projects include a contract with the National Trust for the management of Badbury Clumps, one of the few riding spots we do have. This contract will build on the success of the current and previous builders and seek to guarantee the continued longevity of the site for riders in the County and beyond to enjoy. The second is a volunteer lead project in conjunction with Vale of White Horse District Council to redevelop the South Abingdon BMX track which will give riders of all abilities, young and old, somewhere to develop their skills. Your donation will help us move our organisation into the next phase of operations to be able to deliver on these two projects.
Every little really will help so please donate what you can and help us by sharing this post in all of the groups you ride with and pages you follow. Reach out to OX Trails via our page if you’d like to assist us in any other way!

Epic weekend was had here at the park. Weeks of dry weather meant we were able to get another section of ‘Big Kids’ line open and some people were even riding ‘Shakira’ and ‘Daisy Cutter’. We’re back in the digging this week, looks like it’s going to be dry again so we will work to get some more bits open for the weekend 🤘🏻

T shirts and shorts soon? 🙏🏻 📷
