Pump tracks and BMX tracks across Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Bristol and Bath, from free tracks in village parks and recreation grounds to club BMX race circuits.
About this guide
A pump track is a loop of rollers and berms that you ride by pumping your body up and down rather than pedalling. Get it right and you can lap without a single pedal stroke. Most of the tracks here are asphalt, in public parks and recreation grounds and free to ride, and many are open to scooters, skateboards and balance bikes as well as bikes. The cards name the surface only when it is something else.
We have included BMX tracks too, because riders use both and the riding overlaps: club race tracks with a start hill, and smaller BMX tracks in parks. Each card says which it is, and where a track is run by a club or ridden in booked sessions.
Bristol and South Gloucestershire come first, then the counties in turn. Bath is under Somerset, Bournemouth and Christchurch under Dorset, and Swindon under Wiltshire. Heading further west? See pump tracks in Devon and Cornwall. Heading east? See pump tracks in the South East. Heading north? See pump tracks in the West Midlands. Heading into Wales? See pump tracks in Wales. For what to ride, what to wear, track etiquette and the other regions, see our guide to pump tracks in the UK.
