Theres no point even tryin to build on the dogfield in rainhill, they jus flatten them(the council an the kids on mountainbikes.There was a gud set near rainhill juntion.What happened to them.The woods in billinge have people who set out to ruin any pleaure by placing logs an even carpet grippers hidden under the leaves.Theres a gud set in wigan in the square woods by sainsburys which chris mahoney is meant to have helped build.Thats wot one of the locals sed anyway.
Square woods near rainford by-pass we built a set of trails there!!come ride there, because theres only three of us!ha!come out trick me and me heel clicker!!
y bother buildin trails wen alls that happens is the council flattens them or scruffs generally cross bred wool/scousers cum an leave glass everywhere then ride on ure jumps with mountainikes an destroy ure work. Y is rainhill that depressin.
rainhill dog path needs people with spades to dig as does billinge woods or anywhere in billinge for that matter
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If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update!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.
