Wk 28: New Pump Track Opens In Longwood!

There is an activity that I recently gained interest in. I was not expecting to have so much fun as I did when I went to this new pump track that opened in Longwood, Florida.

One Friday afternoon, I got picked up from school and my mentor told me about a grand opening happening over near his house. I go to his house a lot and that’s usually how I spend Fridays and Sundays. He told me there is something new that had just gotten added to Candyland Park. He said he went to a bike shop called Mr. Bikes And Boards to get a part for his bike and the employees told him about the opening. 

We both went to see what this new opening is all about. When we got there, there were some people who are officials for the City of Longwood talking all about how they made the pump track possible. The track construction expenses were covered by donations, and there were many people who were waiting for this pump track to open.

A pump track has these waves called rollers that you ride on a bicycle, skateboard, or scooter. Riders use a pumping technique to generate momentum and gain speed to go around these curves called corners, and it’s a full body exercise that is a lot of fun. The goal of a pump track is if you are on a bike, you ‘pump’ your bike instead of pedal.

When people started riding it, I was thinking to myself, “That would be really fun to do.” While watching these teens ride this pump track, I wanted to try it out another day, because it was a crowded day and it was a little too cold.

I rode the pump track a couple of days later, and I am super interested in them to this day. It has since become my favorite outdoor activity, and it’s also what I love about biking now. 

There was a news station covering the opening as well, which made the grand opening much more of a big deal to the City of Longwood.

It has closed recently to make the grass grow, because it was very slick and I was slipping on it, while going up the inclines to take a break. It is expected to reopen at the end of March.

Wk 30: Velosolutions Pump Track in Longwood Closes!

In a recent blog post, I stated that the Longwood Velosolutions pump track at Candyland Park in Longwood, Florida had opened to the public and it gained not only the BMX pros, but it drew in the media as well.

When I went to the opening on February 7 after school, I had no idea that what I was going to witness was going to get me on my bike again. It was really fun to ride when I went on the track a couple days after opening, because I loved it! I enjoyed it so much that I was going to ride it every weekend, and even had the opportunity of riding it at night... but it closed in one week.

The pump track closed on February 14, so the grass can have time to grow, and take root. Prior to the closing, the grass that surrounded the rollers was coming off the area around the pump track, and it didn’t look great when it did. Now, I have gone there on more than one occasion, to check out how they’re doing with sprinkling the water around the track, and it is looking better than before they closed it, because Longwood Leisure Services had planted new sod around the track and used a sprinkler to get the grass to hold onto the roller surface. The reason they have used a sprinkler, is because there was barely any rain this time of year in Florida, so they made the grass grow quicker by getting it wet with the sprinkler.

Longwood Leisure Services’ Chris Capizzi said in a statement on the Orlando Sentinel’s website, “We want to let the grass grow, and we plan to reopen it around March 31.”

I will be very happy when the pump track reopens. Hopefully it does reopen at the expected March 31 date, and not get pushed back further because of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

A pull-up is an upper-body strength exercise. The pull-up is a closed-chain movement where the body is suspended by the hands and pulls up. As this happens, the elbows flex and the shoulders adduct and extend to bring the elbows to the torso. - Wikipedia- . . . . . . . . . . . #pumptracks #velosolutions #dartmoorbikes #profilemtb #pullups #gym #tanwalls #jumpbikes #mtblife❤ #mtbinspired #whistler #whistlercanada #canadamtb #rockshox #fastasfuck #chromag (at Full Pull) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDJ2I_-n1ND/?igshid=ra35aqvowyul
