Telure Standard 2026.1
The Telure Standard for a bike park
A versioned, Telure-curated program of checks for a bike park, written in Telure’s own words and organized by how the facility actually runs: the daily rhythm first, then the recurring program above it. It is a documented reference the facility measures its own work against and records reasons against, not a certification. The basis register below shows what informs it, and at what depth.
Alignment tracker
Inside Telure, this list is an alignment tracker a facility turns on with a checkbox. The recurring program below is its clause list, informed by the manufacturer's manual and general safety practice, because no consensus operational standard exists for this facility type. The facility matches its own tasks, checklist items and training items to the clauses they cover, marks the clauses that do not apply with a written reason, and its exports state what share of the rest has a check behind it.
This tracker is Telure's own clause list, informed by the organization's published document. It does not replace reading that document yourself and verifying your facility against it, and marking a clause here is a note on your own record, not a statement by that organization. Where equipment is involved, the manufacturer's documentation governs.
The daily rhythm
Opening walk
Walked before the doors open, item by item, each answer attributed to the person who gave it. The starting set for a bike park:
- Wooden features probed: no soft spots, rot, or lifted deck boards
- Fastener heads flush on bridges, berms, and drops; none proud or backed out
- Takeoffs and landings raked and compact: no ruts, holes, or debris
- Line-rating signage and filter features in place at every start gate
- Closure gates on the hill match the trail status board
- Rental bikes: brakes firm at the lever, pads above the wear line
- Rental bikes: headset tight, thru-axles and stem bolts at torque
- Rental bikes: suspension holds pressure, no oil on the stanchions
- Rental helmets inspected: no cracks, straps and buckles intact
- First aid and trauma kits stocked; evacuation routes clear
During hours
Anything flagged during the day opens a corrective entry on the spot: the item, the finding, and who saw it. Taking equipment or an area out of service is a recorded event with a name attached, and so is returning it. Nothing waits for the end of the shift to become a record.
Closing check
The end-of-day counterpart every facility runs: securing the space and making sure nothing the day surfaced dies overnight.
- Activity areas clear: no members left inside
- Hazards cleared from floors and landing surfaces
- Equipment secured, stowed, or powered down per procedure
- Today's flagged items have maintenance entries opened
- First aid and rescue equipment restocked if used today
- Exits clear; doors, gates and access points secured
The recurring program
The work above the daily walk. Each task surfaces on the day it is due and escalates as it goes overdue. Where a check addresses a published designation, the citation chip names it; a chip is a reference, never a compliance claim.
Weekly
Wooden feature rot & fastener walk
Walk every bridge, berm wall, and drop: probe decking and stringers for soft wood, sight for proud or backed-out fasteners, check ride surfaces underfoot. Photograph and flag anything marginal against the feature. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
addressing IMBA bike park and trail guidanceJump line takeoff & landing inspection
Walk each jump line: lip shape and edges, landing surface compaction, ruts, brake holes, and debris in the runouts. After any significant weather, log an extra walk before the line reopens. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
addressing IMBA bike park and trail guidanceRental fleet torque & brake check
Work through the fleet on the stand: brake lever feel and pad wear, rotor condition, thru-axle and stem torque, headset play, suspension pressure. Record findings against each unit's serial. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
Monthly
Trail signage, gate & closure check
Confirm line-rating signs, filter features, and warning signage at every start gate, and that closure gates and taped features on the hill match the declared status. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
addressing IMBA bike park and trail guidanceBerm & drainage erosion review
Review berm faces, drainage grades, and armoring on a rotating section of the park; log erosion, water channeling, and exposed geotextile for the corrective queue. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
addressing IMBA bike park and trail guidancePump track & skills area surface inspection
Inspect pump track and skills area surfaces: rollers and berm faces intact, no potholes or exposed aggregate, small features stable underfoot. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
Quarterly
Emergency action plan & evacuation review
Walk the EAP with staff on shift: patrol response points, evacuation routes off each line, and the incident documentation flow. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
Every 6 months
Staff training & patrol currency review
Confirm current first-response and patrol training records for every active staff member; schedule refreshers before they lapse. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.
Yearly
Full structural inspection (qualified person)
Full inspection of wooden features, dirt features, and armoring by a qualified person; file the report against this task and open corrective items for every finding. Part of the Telure Standard: the manufacturer's manual governs all equipment intervals.

No consensus operational standard currently exists for bike park operations. The entries above ground specific slices of the program (workplace safety for staff, sport rules, published guidance); the rest of the pack is Telure's own curated practice, and is stated as such.
The manufacturer’s documentation governs
Where a manufacturer's documentation sets an inspection type or an interval for a piece of equipment, that documentation governs. The pack's cadences are a program to build on, not a replacement: when the two differ, Telure shows the difference so it can be seen and documented, and the recorded schedule follows the manufacturer.
Where Telure stands
The Telure Standard is Telure's own curated program. Telure is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or licensed by any standards body or association named here, and adopting the Telure Standard does not make a facility compliant with, approved under, or certified to any standard. Where equipment is involved, the manufacturer's documentation governs inspection types and intervals.
