Been up to my local trails in Prestwich, Manchester and the council have been building some surprisingly good trails in the Phillips park area. Compared to the older trails which they built they are great. Loads of berms (some big uns, not quite lee quarry but...) and quite a few jumps..some pretty big uns too.

Nothing ground breaking but with the surrounding area...its better. The kids have been nicely wearing in parts too.

Give us a shout if anyone fancies it.

    Where exactly are they? Are they near to the M60 and the ceramics (?) factory you pass on the train?
    Also, where is the access to them? Might be worth a pootle along

    Cheers
    GREAT SUCCESS!

    I've not been there, but I'm local (Oldham). I'd be up for it in a few weekends time.

    Its inside Phillips park, if you go to the children's play area you can access it there.

    I access it from the shell petrol station right at the motorway roundabout on bury new road. Go to the side of the station and there's a walkway, follow that down. Once inside the park, get up the hill to the left after the wood carving and that about 200 metres down. Its not too hard to find, just look for fresh gravel.
