A big welcome to the Bike Track People website.

Let us tell you who we are, where we are and what we do.

Bike Track People was born from a company called Bikes and Berms, however, following a few blank looks and our realisation that nobody really knew what this meant, we thought we would make it a bit clearer, hence the birth of Bike Track People.

As you might have guessed we design, build, develop and hire bike tracks.  This might be the hire of a portable pump or a timber track all the way up to the complete design and build of a new trail, bike park or trail centre.

As to who we are, well there is Ben, who with Glentress, Innerleithen and the southern uplands on his doorstep has grown up with mountain biking.  Combine this with a year in British Columbia at Whistler and the Sunshine Coast and you have thoughts, designs and all sorts’ of weird and wonderful ideas just waiting to be turned into reality.  If you have an idea and want some input or maybe a chinwag about all things bikes or biking then Ben is your man!

Then we have Rich, the old man of the company, an engineer by trade and happy in the knowledge that no matter how big, small or weird a trail or track might be, he can build it.  A mountain biker (of sorts), a trail builder and the boss, to name but a few things that he does.

Meet Ben!

Next up is Deirdre, there to keep Rich and Ben on the straight and narrow as well as being the business mind behind the company.  Another mountain biker, a teacher and involved in all sorts of mountain bike shenanigans, in addition to Bike Track People.

Last but not least we have the support crew, Abbie, Jess, Fudge, Skipper, Dean the designer and on any given day; Nic, Steven, Moray, Dan,  Alister, Keith, Jack and a multitude of others who when not putting the mountain biking world to rights, help out with Bike Track People.

Finally, where are we?  Well, we are based in Innerleithen in the Tweed Valley, which is about 25 miles south of Edinburgh and in the heart of some of the best mountain biking terrain in the UK.  We like travelling and are happy to provide our services where you would like us too?

We are here to basically do the following:

• Hire pump tracks and timber tracks to events, parties, shindigs, races or anywhere else where getting on a bike is going make people smile.

• Support, design, develop and build mountain bike trails, tracks, bike parks, fun parks, pump tracks and timber tracks.

• Work with wood, soil, metal or any ground type or material that will support a trail or a track and get kids, adults or just about anybody on a bike.

• Support the development of mountain biking and cycling

• Finally…..get on our bikes and smile!
