Description
Bathgate Pumptrack is an asphalt pump track of about 175 metres in Balbardie Park, built by Velosolutions: a long loop with berms and rollers that can also be ridden as a figure of eight. It is floodlit, sits beside the park's skate park, and suits bikes, balance bikes, scooters and skateboards.
