This is an example of a Bike park. Click to view.

You can book your day ride pass up until midnight the day before your visit for just £8 for a full day of riding.

E-bike riders can buy a day pass for £15

Oh right! They have one of those up on the Rhune, it's free... Built and maintained by the local users. Last time we walked by there was a guy from Brittany who had driven down to try it. It is on "public land", nods as good as a wink to a blind horse...

I thought it was a place to park your bike

I don't ride an ebike because of my disability, but because of my disability an ebike does allow me to go further and tackle hills I might otherwise avoid. I'm pretty sure I don't ride anywhere near as far as any of the non assisted bike riders around here, but it does level the playing field a bit.

So, from my perspective, if I were to use a bike park, and my means of using that bike park was an ebike, and they wanted to charge me more (than a non-disabled person) for the privilege, then yes, I would feel this was unacceptable and potentially direct discrimination as I'd probably be cycling a shorter distance, and slower than most.

I think they should pay more to cover the cost of the calls to the fire brigade to extinguish them.

... A principal is a person, a principle is an idea , since we all were afraid of the principal at school , we would all like to go elsewhere.

Is this a public park or is it privately owned and operated? Is is any of its track on public land?

I wouldn't pay extra out of principle.
