Box Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Huddersfield - TrialsKings country! Although I went to uni there and didn't spot much apart from the phonebox to wall gap outside KFC, as featured on an old MBUK poster... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 If you're in Halifax, you're reasonably close to Lee Quarry. Plenty of fun stuff to play on there. Other than that, there's Shipley, Addingham Moorside, Leeds, Bradford, and a load of other natural spots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paperclip Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 We parked just below the pub in the car park there and walk across and up to the rocks. It is a fair walk up to the better bit's to ride. Not as easy or as accessible as Shipley glen. Might if you're on your own riding it be better to ride somewhere like the Glen. Addingham moorside is a tricky one at the moment you're not really meant to ride there but wouldn't get any trouble for doing so if you park out of the way of the gates. Also the Flappit still has some riding but all three suck if it's windy. What bike do you have? I'm from the Skipton area but there's a few of us dotted all over West Yorkshire if you like riding urban/street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishayton Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 I live a mile from Blackstone edge. Its about 15min from the car park to the top but WELL worth it. Its one of the best trials spots in the UK. Ive rode there countless times and always find completely new lines. Send me a PM if you decide to go up.

HuddersSteve Posted October 29 Report Share Posted October 29 Hey, this is an olllldddd thread I know, but I'm wanting to get back into trials after being inspired watching Ali C on YouTube 😁 are there any local groups around Huddersfield / West Yorkshire that ride together often? I'm an avid mountain biker and ride every Sunday around Calderdale, Peaks etc but non of my riding group are into trials so I'm on my own at the moment. I lived and breathed trials when I was a teenager, growing up reading mbuk and being inspired by the Martyns, Akrigg, I'm 36 now and love natural MTB tech.
