FlyUp 417 Almost Ready to Roll

It’s taken a little longer than we had hoped but we now have an official opening date of 14th March 2016 for the all new DH Bike Park

So…… We are super excited to announce that we can finally give you the news you have all been waiting for.…The 417 Project will officially be opening its gates for business on 14th March 2016.

We were desperately hoping to open this year – but sadly due to numerous factors this will just not be possible. We know everyone (including us) is eager for the 417 Project to open but thanks to the worst August on record; the rain has hindered the track building massively. We had days where Architrail, even with their best efforts, just couldn’t get the diggers on the hillside. Good old British summer! We want things to be at their best for you all when you come to ride and with the estimated completion date for the tracks now being smack bang in winter; opening in the Spring will give the tracks time to settle ready for you all to enjoy properly!

On top of this we have a few exciting things in the pipeline which will add so much to our facility but have equally added to the timescales – we can’t say much at this stage…. but trust us it will be worth the final wait!!

To end the speculation, frustration and rumours we can now at least finally give you an official opening date and rest assured the booking calendar is going live towards the end of the year.

All customers that pre-purchased their passes and pre-view passes through the Indigogo campaign will be contacted separately to make your booking.

And finally, make sure you keep your eyes peeled for details of our Launch Party!! We will have a limited amount of tickets up for grabs, and you won’t want to miss out – info to follow very soon. Updates will still continue on social media and newsletters.

We want to thank everyone for their continued support and patience, we guarantee that it will all have been worth the wait in the end…. Here’s to the final straight – the end, and beginning is well and truly in sight!!
