"The Trax" is an exciting brand new off road cycling club for the riders of Lordship Recreation Ground (the Rec), Tottenham and North London. Affiliated to British Cycling and the CTC (UK’s national cyclists' organisation) it is now open for membership (currently free) and encouraging local people to join up.

The Trax is focused on all off road cycling disciplines and so is open to mountain bikers, BMX riders, freeriders, downhill and dirt jump riders, amongst others. All ages as well as all levels of ability and experience are welcome. Non members are more than welcome to come along on one of the regular rides before joining the club.

The club meets regularly on Sunday mornings for either a local ride or an away day ride for all ages in the surrounding trail centres and bike parks. The Youth Club meets on Saturdays but has just finished it's recent sessions. Updates on the next sessions to follow soon.

Bike Park in the Rec
Lordship Rec is the home and heart of The Trax club and has a long history in cycling. It has had a dirt BMX track since the 80s and more recently a freestyle BMX skate park with a growing vibrant community.  In 2011 the Rec will become home to a brand new multi disciplined bike park. One of the first of its kind, this urban off road cycling centre will serve the local community through a 200 metre recreational racing track with berms and progressive jumps, a pump track and a North Shore skills area. Haringey council is currently working on achieving a £2.5 million match funding to release a £4 million grant made available by Heritage Lottery Fund for the proposed overhaul of the Rec, during which the new bike park will be built alongside a new city farm, an eco centre and major regeneration and landscaping works.
