I mainly blog about birds, nature and nature photography. But I happen to be an enthusiastic mountainbike rider for longer than I am into birds and I do work in bicycle media, too. So cycling and especially mountainbiking is quite a big thing in my life.
Recently, my friends from Trailtech Mountainbiking accomplished a community pump track project. A pump track is a circuit of rollers, banked turns and features, designed to be ridden completely by "pumping" – generating momentum by up and down body movements, instead of pedaling.
Kudos and a massive thank you to everyone involved in the project. The place has quickly become an attraction in the small community and more: a wonderfully inclusive, inviting and immersive spot for young and old, bicycle affected or not - for everyone! And boy, do I love this pumping!
