Biking at Glassie Farm.

Facilities onsite; We have a couple of car parks on our access track that bikers and walkers are fine to use for FREE in the day, the third car park is for people who have booked the accommodation that we have onsite.

Overnight stays in Car Parks; All we ask is that you ask us if you wish to stay on-sight overnight and we will charge you £5 for the night per vehicle, as we do run an accommodation business onsite and if you are a self-contained camper van that`s fine, but no tents erected or fires to be lit.

Recent trail changes: all changes have been done because the bike park  did not want to except any responsibility for any of the trails on our land and we are not qualified to grade and maintain the trails ourselves. Therefore, as we are not prepared to loose our business or house if someone tries a claim for injury due to other peoples lack of responsibility we are looking to convert them all to BLUES otherwise they will have to be removed as bike trails, which would be a great shame for all.

Trail Builder wanted to keep these trails going?

We will work with you to find grants to do the work or fund it ourselves, depending on costs. All we really need from you would be to maintain the trails and keep records of whats been done and checked, then our insurance will cover for up to 4 BLUE trails for public liability.

1- The Blue Midge  Staying as it is for a while, a good short Blue. 

2- Purple Haze. As this trail is not a Blue on our land it will have to be modified or closed towards the end of 2025, our site finishes at the wall.  

3-The Dreamline. This will also have to be modified in December 2025. If no-one comes forward with ideas of changing it to a fantastic blue this great trail will be lost forever, its now therefore CLOSED until further notice.

4- Shredo / Blue View access There is now a wide farm vehicle access track at the top where these two trails were built. Shredo can be joined 150 meters down it at the large beech tree in the woods and Blue View can be joined 100 meters down as you pass through the wall boundary. 

All the 4 listed will be lost to biking in the area because of insurance / liability cover issues and the lack of a qualified trail builder who is willing to do a bit of paperwork and is wanting to help young people develop skills on bikes as the local bike park does not want to build BLUE`s.

We are going to be talking to a professional trail builder in December about a possible way forward to keep these fantastic trails alive.
