We have a signed agreement with the FC for building and maintaining the trails in Thrunton, and develop them with the objective of keeping them as natural as possible.

We are totally self funded as a group, with some help from the Forestry Commission for materials and tools. The types of trails tend to be towards the technical cross country style.

The group is very low key, we keep bureaucracy to a minimum and build trails that we enjoy to ride.

If you have any queries please contact the secretary Matt Jones on the following email address simon@thruntontrailbuilders.co.uk.
 

 


Joining is easy, simply fill out our form and sent it to thruntontb@btinternet.com then send the payment via paypal to thruntontb@btinternet.com.

If you don't have a paypal accounts please send a cheque and a completed form to the treasurer.
