Not sure about North Yorks dude but you're not far off Silksworth Park, Sunderland (40 miles-ish) and there's a decent bowl in Durham which will be about 30 mile-ish.

That's about as much as I know mate, ask S&M McBikeCo, he's just done a road trip round the north east so he may know of more.

You can always goto the little free park in Northallerton(about 8mins drive from ozy) - its not too bad, the hips about the best thing in it.  Some kids have trails in Ozy, but I'm not sure where.  I have some trails and a half pipe in Brompton(a mile north of northallerton) - your welcome to come and play so long as you take any litter.

A word of warning about Boro - your probly safe in prissick park - watch the street spots if you goto any - Boro is like the wild west mate, haha.

Silky is the best park -

Darlos OK and not too far for you to visit, but watch your self too - infact be carefull where ever you ride up north, don't grief any of the local chavs - best to humor them and chat a bit and your car will be safe  ;)

You could visit Hurworth - it has an oldschool spot, just a small 1/2 pipe really

& the huge overflow bowl on the outskirts of darlo - you need rope to get into that, haha.

Might be best to avoid Newcastle park for now too - small war going on this week - check SP message board.

Eye, easy to find - just head to local leisure center near the school, its next to the center - more or less as you come into N'llerton form Ozy, turn right at the stoneX garage.
