[Closed] Thinking of visiting Rogate Bike park

Hi mate, been there loads of time with my son - I'm a wheels on the ground XC numpty from the 90s and there's loads I can ride at Rogate. Go, it's great fun.
The bottom section is mostly flowy runs with tables, which you can jump or not - there are trails style jumps near the bottom, easily avoided. I think there's only one drop off I don't do, and that's easily avoid too - the rest are quite small and just go with the flow of the trail.
Costs a fiver to ride there - I think you have to sign up on the B1KE site beforehand, but they'll probably let you have a trial morning before signing up (we did). Sam and the fellas that run it are good eggs.
Ah, it's just a good fun place to go and ride for a few hours (if you don't mind the push-up!) 🙂

btw - its closed tomorrow (Sunday) as there's racing.

Yes give Rogate a go it's very progressive.

@DezB
Thanks for the input mate, I was planning to go there today but they're closing a little early due to race preparation tomorrow. End up at Tidworth instead and scary jumps so stayed away from those and stick with Berminator (just the bottom half of it as its quite mellow for my skill).

Regarding the push-up hah yeah had my first taste of that at Tidworth 😆

Thanks, will probably give it a go soon.

Keep on meaning to get over there as it's only 45 mins away. Must make an effort.

@akira yeah, I'm about the same distance. So is Tidworth, only 45/50mins away from Farnborough.

Got a feeling I’ll be at Rogate on Monday.. 😊

We can arrange an stw meet up at some point. Although if we can just discuss Sick bikes and picolax that might be more appropriate than actually riding.

We spent a few hours there in the sand and dust today. Great though, cos not too hot.
Apart from having to go home after the first aborted attempt cos I forgot to fix Jr's front brake. Doh.
So dusty I had my first crash there, front wheel just disappeared under the sand on a corner.. bosh
