Title: Cornwall BMX Racing Club pump track edit
Post by: Humps00 on May 21, 2013, 10:22 PM
Only short but shows what can be done on a pump track even where the space isn't ideal or flat.  Matt & James putting it through its paces.  Enjoy.  Humps

Can't remember exactly when it was started but it was probably about then as Matt did it as his first year summer project whilst at Uni.  Initially we had a mini-digger for a couple of days and just recently some of the dirt has been moved across to allow changes when we had a digger in.  But other than that it's all been sculpted by hand with dirt pick-axed off the embankment or barrowed in from other parts of the site.  It's been a real labour of love and even the topping involved shifting something like 7 tons of dust from the car park where it had been dropped.  Hopefully everyone will appreciate the asset they have at the Club and already last night it was being ridden repeatedly.  Now that's completed and the practice jumps in the middle of the track are all but done it's time to move on to another project.  Oh yes, the proposed trails and pump track next to the skatepark at Mount Hawke.  That'll keep us busy for a while.  Humps
