What is a Pump Track?

A pump track is a circuit made of small mounds of dirt, shaped into rolling hills (rollers) banked turns, and other low features. These tracks are designed to be ridden completely by riders pumping - generating momentum up and down body movements - instead of pedaling or pushing. Pump tracks were originally designed for mountain bike and BMX users. Most pump tracks link a series of rollers to steeply bermed corners that bring the riders back around the circuit. The size can vary from track to track. Pump tracks are not intended to be tracks to jump and for bikes and/or riders to leave the ground. They are relatively simple to use and cater to a wide variety of rider skill levels.

Why is it "Temporary"?

The current location of the pump track is located on newly acquired Town parcels located at 475 Ginny Drive and 450 Duncan Drive.  They were determined to be ideal location due to the proximity to Big Picture Learning and Windsor High Schools and the topography of the site.  A permanent site for the pump track has been identified in the adopted Keiser Park Master Plan Update in a different location within the park; however, the development and construction of this project will be years in the future. This location will be available until the track is moved to it's permanent home.
