Large Section Of Lee Quarry Trail Centre Washed Away In Flood

Bad news for mountain biking in the north of England seems to come in twos these days. Just days after it was announced that Lancashire County Council were cutting all funding and support for the mountain bike centres of Lee Quarry and Cragg Quarry the site suffered landslide brought on by the recent flooding, wiping out much of the trails at the lower section of the site.

Singletrack Owner/Publisher

Mark has been riding mountain bikes for over 30 years and co-owns Singletrack, where he's been publisher for 25 years. While his official title might be Managing Director, his actual job description is "whatever needs doing" – from wrangling finances and keeping the lights on to occasionally remembering to ride bikes for fun rather than just work. He's seen the sport evolve from rigid forks to whatever madness the industry dreams up next, and he's still not entirely sure what "gravel" is. When he's not buried in spreadsheets or chasing late invoices, he's probably thinking about his next ride.
