ASPHALT
PUMPTRACKS
A thrilling community asset
A pumptrack is a continuous loop of rolling features and banked turns designed for riders to maintain momentum without pedalling — using body movements called “pumping.” They are suitable for bikes, scooters, skateboards, and even wheelchairs, making them one of the most inclusive recreational facilities available.
Why Pumptracks Benefit Communities
- Active Recreation for All Ages – Encourages outdoor play and physical activity.
- Inclusivity – Accessible to beginners, advanced riders, and multiple user types.
- Community Hub – Creates a social gathering space that promotes healthy lifestyles.
- Durable and Low-Maintenance – Professionally designed asphalt tracks can withstand years of use with minimal upkeep.
- Economic Value – Attracts visitors and events, supporting local business.
- Environmental Integration – Can be sensitively designed to fit naturally into open spaces or urban areas.

FAQ
1. What is a pumptrack and who can use one?
A pumptrack is a continuous loop of rolling features (rollers) and banked turns (berms) designed so that riders can maintain and generate momentum using body movements – called ‘pumping’ – rather than pedalling.
They can be used by anyone with a wheeled device, including:
- Bikes – from balance bikes to adult mountain bikes
- Scooters and BMX bikes
- Skateboards and inline skates
- Wheelchairs and mobility devices
