Is the place you know at denham part of HUX cos i contacted them looking for somewhere to ride and they told me there is nowhere they know of and to try outside the m25 confused me at the time as i know they have practice ground in denham.
cheers for any info you have.

ok thank you for your help nigel i will defo be contacting berko there ground looks really good but think i defo need to get the basics down before i go there as i said before looking out for a bike at the mo then gonna get my balance and figure of 8s and stuff sorted on tarmac then will try a few practices before entering a trial. Hope to see you at a trial in the not too distant future thanks again for your advice.

Berkos land isn't that great but its all we have at the moment till the Buzzards get sorted and best of all its legal.
