The Issue

Growing up as a parent in Feltwell, I've always cherished the idea of my children spending more time in the great outdoors rather than being glued to screens. I firmly believe that both kids and adults benefit immensely from outdoor adventures that promote physical activity and mental well-being. Many families in our community would love to see a change: allowing bikers to use the Feltwell hockwold Pits.

If someone knows anyone on the committee, or council, please could I arrange a meeting with them.

Not everyone can afford the track prices. If this was legalised, there would be rules put in place I.E have to wear protection & sign a waiver, allowed in certain areas of the pits, otherwise fined or impoundment of your bike.

This petition is aimed at granting bikers access to Feltwell Pits while maintaining a respectful environment for all users, including dog walkers and horse riders. By introducing a simple waiver, the responsibility of any accidents will be acknowledged by the bikers themselves. This allows everyone to enjoy the space while recognising the inherent risks involved with biking activities.

Feltwell Pits is a beautiful area that offers diverse terrains perfect for biking, and opening it up to bikers will encourage healthy lifestyles and foster a sense of community. It's an opportunity for children and adults alike to explore and enjoy the natural beauty of our locality.

With the proper guidelines and shared respect between all users of the pits, we can transform this space into a harmonious area for recreational activities. Let's provide a balanced use of the Feltwell Pits that accommodates bikers while ensuring the safety and enjoyment of all.

Transforming our approach to how we use the Pits can contribute to a healthier, active, and more connected community.

I urge you to support this initiative and sign this petition to make a difference in our beloved Feltwell community. Your support is crucial in making this vision a reality.
