The name Addingham Moorside has been synonymous with Trials in the UK for many, many years. A noted venue for events and a legal practice area which has helped contribute to the careers of such names as Dougie Lampkin, James Dabill and Graham Jarvis. Bradford Council have forced the landowner, against his will, to close this ground for a minimum of twelve months. This not only closes off one of the top areas for practice in the UK, but also places several organised Trials events under threat.

Trials Central call on the Trials community, both cycle and motor Trials to rally to the cause, both by writing to the landowner as detailed in this article and by signing our online petition calling for Bradford Council to review their decision to force the closure of Addingham Moorside and to work with the Trials community to address any issues that led to this closure.
