There are three Re-cycle Circuits in Redbridge, providing a challenge for bikers all ages.  Mums and Dads have even been seen giving them a go!  The Re-Cycle Circuits are based at, Loxford Park, Goodmayes Park and Forest Road Playing Fields all of which are open access and FREE for anyone to use.

Bikers of all ages will love the challenge of these circuits which consist of weaving posts, limbo beams, a seesaw, bridge ride, big dipper, zig-zag, criss cross ride, take-off ramp and rumble strip to name but a few of the exciting pieces of equipment available.  These items are designed to teach riders balance and co-ordination in the safety of a designated cycle area.

The name Re-Cycle is derived from the fact that each piece of equipment is made from 100% recycled materials, known in the trade as HDRP (high density recycled products), which are taken directly from the UK waste chain.  Comprising of 90% recycled plastics and 10% recycled steel, the circuit is hard wearing.

It won't rot or splinter and the only way to get rid of it is to recycle it.  You could say that it is lean, mean and green!

  • The Loxford Park circuit is situated in the old sunken garden in the middle of the park, most easily accessible from Loxford Lane.
  • The Goodmayes Park track is adjacent to the children's play area, the nearest entrances being holden Close or the junction of Stevens Road and Dunkeld Road.
  • The Forest Road Playing Fields circuit is situated next to the Skate Park on the corner of Elmbridge Road and Forest Road.
