Bionic Balls Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 All i know is that it is private property....but a large area and DAMN good riding!! You'd have to contact the landowner- i don't know who... adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Evil1 Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I know that the conners own the land,sam's a world class mototrials rider( about 13th in 04), im sure if you ask them they would allow you to ride there, but i cant really say as i dont know.

biketrialler Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Yeah, Jim Connor (Sam's padre) owns the lands. You need to contact him to ask, and he'll normally charge about £10 per rider for a days riding if he doesn't know you. I'll try and fish out the number (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joker Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 lol £10 is not a lot considering how many rocks/artificial items jim has put in there!!! jim spends 100s of hours modfiying the area so that its good enough to practice on and ffs, importing about 200 tonnes of rock is not cheap. you cant really begrudge the connors the money, as all proceeds from hook woods are either re invested in more obstacles or the money helps fund sams riding for the year.
