Carrbridge Bike Park Description
The idea for Carrbridge Bike Park was first conceived in 2010, with Carrbridge resident Ranald McWiliam being the driving force behind the project along with his son Kerr.
Kerr who designed the Bike Park - with help from younger brothers Lewis & Jamie - used his experience from bike parks in New Zealand to create a bike skills area, that could be used by riders of all ages & abilities.
Work on the second phase of the park is due to start in Nov 2013.
Principal funding for the project came from the Scottish Government's Shovel Ready Fund with additional financial support from Carrbridge Ahead Limited and Landmark.
This page is designed to help share information of whats happening at Carrbridge Bike Park and too allow members to share their own photo's and video's of their biking experiences at Carrbridge Bike Park.
Life Membership Fee: £10 per person or £20 per family.
