hi...im from nuneaton.....a couple of years ago i did some lanes in the area with a few lads...but im not sure of their current status?
there was one that starts just up the road from twycross zoo....
the start is at 52 39 33.85N / 1 32 20.00W
you really need the o/s map and then check with the local authority as to the current status of the lanes.

Hi Dude.
That looks to me like Ellis town one of my haunts, has some good climbs/drops. Good little place for a couple of hours fun. I've also been using the lanes that go along the A444 & the ones up by Twycross zoo Superb lanes.
We go out most Sundays & you're welcome to tag along, there's anything up to 9 motors going out & a few of us have decent winches as well.
Add me to MSN & we'll have a chat some time.
Here's us
