Thanks for posting the Ayton pics, they bring back some great memories. My dad used to take me and a few mates racing at Guisborough, he would always take us to Ayton for a thrash about, thing is I didn't realised is was Ayton Quarry... we used to ride there in the early 90s and I never clicked it was the same place :idiot2: I guess when you're 12 years old, driving from Hartlepool to Guisborough seemed like a trip to a distant planet.
Do you remember a huge Coal Hill near Guisborough track, we used to go there aswell, drag the bike to the top and ride down full pelt... no idea of the location, but it was massive.

Or he might have taken you to the trails at the top of the scrambler track at Fletchers farm near Ayton quarry were there was is MASSIZE slag heap called "red hill", though it looks badly eroded compared to what it was.
