I am one lucky guy! MORE (Mid Atlantic Off Road Enthusiasts) has just worked with the Montgomery County Parks and Rec to get a pumptrack up and running.
Thanks to all the volunteers who put countless hours in to dial this thing in. The features are big and the shaping must have taken a lot of sweat equity. It was all worth it as many people have been keen on it and it has really brought together a lot of riders that wouldn't have had it not been there. I really hope this is just the beginning for public supported bike facilitates in the name of recreation and getting more people on bikes.
The design for the track (on the next page) was done by Lee McCormack , of www.leelikesbikes.com, whom I interviewed awhile back. He did a great job on this as I can tell you from hours of personal experience riding this thing that there are tons of lines to keep you having fun and challenging yourself.
Read on for a helmet cam video of the track!
