2020 Canada pump track rumours

Pump tracks are popping up across Canada at what seems like an accelerated pace, and that is great news for kids and the sport! With an increasingly screen-addicted youth population, these facilities look to stem the negative trend of inactivity. Small, kid-friendly neighbourhood tracks have shown to quickly become a hub for the community. On top of that, the UCI made Pump Track a World Championship event in 2019, so it will be interesting to see where provincial and national organizations will go with the new discipline.

WHICH COMMUNITIES ARE FEELING LUCKY IN 2020?

South Glenmore Park, Calgary - This long-awaited track is aiming to break ground in 2020. With a couple of asphalt tracks and a flow line, it sounds like an amazing project that is being managed by the Parks Foundation Calgary.

Fairview/Acadia, Calgary - It’s a race with Cochrane to see who opens first. Bike-Track is building it’s first asphalt pump track in Alberta and all that is left is a fresh coat of asphalt in the spring and it will be ready to ride!

Harmony, Rocky View County - Harmony is really going to have it all: from a lake with swimming, kayaking and fishing; to a Mickelson golf course; and now construction of an adventure park with asphalt pump track. Even though it is one of the closest communities to the mountains, it’ll be hard to leave!

Montgomery, Calgary - In 2019 a dedicated team of community members got a lease on a couple acres of land and built a small bike park with a single track and some wood features. Now the committee has set its sights higher with an asphalt pump track. Already momentum has built, after a successful fall fundraiser and more to come.

Winsport, Calgary - New pump track(s) to be added to their 2019 flow trails and skill park.
