Charle  \nCunningham,aged 78.An early  \nproponent of aluminium bikes,  \nCharlie also improved MTB hub  \ndesign,helped create the iconic  \nSpecialized Ground Control tyreand co-founded Wilderness Trail  \nBicycles(WTB).A \"friendly,quiet  \nand unassuming\"man,he leaves  \na significant legacy in the sport.  \nIt feels like trail centres have fallen out of the limelight a bitrecently,with the growth in bike parks and off-piste ridingThat's ashame,because these stalwarts of the UKMTBscene are a great place to getin some all-weather laps andwork on your skills,without worrying about getting lost,and with the promise of a hot cuppa and some tasty grubwhen you're done.  \nJAMES  \nSince the boom years of the 2000s,relatively few newpurpose-built trail loops have sprung up in the nation'swoodlands.Some centres -including Coedy Brenin,theone that started it all-have even been stripped of facilities.  \nCOSTLEY-WHITE  \nGROUP EDITOR  \nIcan understand why.Large-scale public forestry centres cost a lotto constructand maintain,and are reliant on income from parking and cafe/shop leases.In comparison,privately-owned bike parks can be built on much smallerpatches of land and can charge for membership and uplifs.  \nUltimately,we need to support ourtrail-centre network if we want it to surviveand help get future generatons riding,whether that's by spending cash on-siteorusing official car parks,not nearby laybys.Tom and Rob's adventure thisissue(p48)shows there's plenty of fun to be had,whatever the trail grading.  \nRight,lecture over!'l see you on the
