Indoor/covered Trials Areas In Hampshire?


Phil H

Recommended Posts

Do any exist in Hampshire because I am getting pi**ed off to the extreme with this rain. I would love to just be able to go somewhere with a couple of mates meet new people and have a good day riding and chilling out. It's alot to ask but does anyone know of any?

cheers, Phil

unfortunately phil there are very few indoor areas in the uk, your best bet is to try find somewhere yourself. we found an old warehouse choc full o' pallets and it even has a working light :D. see what you can find, there will be somewhere.

DEAR JESUS how good is that! So lucky!

We have a little trials course in my mates garden which is awesome, we whack out a light in the evenings but in this weather its not good as it isn't covered.

Salisbury has a disused swimming pool. Its been closed for 8 years.

You thinking what im thinking?

I AM thinking what your thinking.

That would be awesome but its a killer 1 hour 10 minute train from where I live.

You guys should scout it out, see what you find, see the prospects, take some pictures (Y)

I'm thinking what you're thinking... How feasable is it? Do the BMXer's use it already?... Very interesting...

Hiya Dave,

Its fully sealed(indoor) , no one goes in it.

Its got a main pool (3 meters deep end) and the beginners pool ,,,,ah :rolleyes:

I was thinking we should aproach the council to see if it could be used for biking legit.

Im sure its only going to be bulldozed eventualy.Not sure why its still there to be honest.

Will try and get some pictures of the outside.

Cheers for the information mate. Well thinking about it I don't think council is the way to go as they don't want to be responsible for someone getting destroyed there.

I think someone needs to properly scout out inside there and see whats going on. If no one touches the site and the door is closed behind any rider that goes in I don't see how anyone would need to find out about it being used. It would be when pikeys started hanging in there etc that I think the council would really get involved.

heya mate

i live just up the road from you, in chichester kind of way and we wrote to our local youth representative a while back about getting a park for us to use somewhere here. of course, the youth representative though it was actualy a good idea but nothing has come of it....predictable!

if you do however get permission, do let us all know!!

toby
