Bath golf club set to be transformed into bike park

Golfers previously claimed that a consultation on the plans were 'taken over by a cycling lobby on steroids'

A golf club in Bath is set to be transformed into a 30 acre mountain bike park.

Cycling group Pedal Progression announced last night it has won a 'lengthy tender process' to create Bath Bike Park, on the site of the former Entry Hill golf course.

Golfers previously campaigned to save the two loss-making golf courses after Bath and North East Somerset Council revealed that each round played cost taxpayers £8.

I read the headline and imagined 30 acres of stands for parked bikes.  I have never even seen that in amsterdam.
