    Thunder Cross Valley. Is it still open?

    Just wondering if anyone knows what's going on with that place? Facebook page has been deactivated, phones just goes to answerphone and no response to txt messages to the mobile.

    Was hoping to go riding with a few mates who don't have bikes but it looks like that's out of the question now. Not driving all the way there to find out the place isn't hiring anymore etc.

    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    I know Nick is now not running the bike park, and James is trying to sell the farm again, can not confirm if its open or not, James is not really a text kind of guy from when i delt with him, if he does not return messages then I presume he is not opening,

    Moto X Central (the old kimmys farm) has an up to date facebook, saying the enduro loop should be open next weekend,

    more clay based, more formed track, and not as many paddocks, its not an operating farm like thundercross was so the tracks tend to be a bit better maintained, with out stock on them etc,

    Only place I know that hires bikes now is The Sandpit at Woodhill, I'm a big fan of the place (despite all those nasty trees) but realise there are some that don't get riding in sand.
    Huge amount of varied riding available!

    Are they still going? Looking for somewhere to ride after the new year.

    Was going to head to Motox central but they seem to have gone.
