Description
Craven Arms Pump Track is a BMX-style pump track on the town playing fields in Craven Arms, Shropshire. Built by Clark and Kent Contractors and opened in 2012, it is a loop of berms and rollers with a return berm, surfaced with a mix of asphalt and hard-packed sections, so you can ride repeated laps.
The Track
The loop mixes berms with a run of rollers, and the return berm lets you carry speed straight back round for another lap. The layout suits riders working on pumping, cornering and rhythm, from young BMX riders to anyone on a mountain bike or scooter learning to link sections.
