Check the status before heading out
Before heading to Wylde, it's essential to check the status of the MTB trails, BMX racetrack, and pump track.
The MTB trails are built on a natural clay base, which takes time to dry out after rain. When the trails are wet, they become dangerous to ride on, so they may be closed during and after rain until they are dry and safe.
The BMX racetrack may occasionally be closed for events or club meetings, and the pump track might be closed for maintenance.
We inspect the facilities every morning and update their status on the main page by 8:00 am.
Opening hours
7 days a week, sunrise to sunset (weather and track conditions permitting).
The BMX racetrack is closed to the general public for club training and races on Tuesdays from 4:30 pm to 8:30 pm and Saturdays from 7:00 am to 2:00 pm.
