I've heard about the cambu quarry re-opening but i've not heard anything going on to protest against it.

The only dirt jumps I've been riding are 20+ miles from my house. (I live in portsmouth) then I stumbled accross news of a council backed set in
Hayling Island but I can't find where they are. I dont know Hayling that well (never really needed to go there) so if anyone can give me a google maps link or details of which road thay re off that would be awesome. I figure someone here has ridden them....
