BMX Trails, Street Spots

• Actually, there is a new skate/bmx park in Watford, not very far from C&A. It's still quite small and I've yet to actually see any skating going on, but at least the council have made the effort I suppose. Unfortunately, they've also seen fit to demolish all the jumps and trails that the mountain bikers made in the woods, as if the skate park would somehow be a fitting substitute. Clearly the council are all idiots. I met our MP Clare Ward once, I was not impressed.
• Right basically if theres any where to use a BMX for tricks or anything like that your not going to find any good places in watofrd unless u feel like getting beaten, arrested or killed. The only place i can think off to use a BMX would be a school or something like that, you can always go out side CNA's but thats always full of skaters. There arnt any decent public stunt parks where ur allowed to use a BMX the only park is a crappy one in a park in west watford but if your there for to long you will eventually get lip off some little wanna be hard boys, but its a very small park and if u hurt ur self ur riding ur self to a hospital and dont expect help off the local comunity.

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
