Talk about a productive day! Chris Bernard has been working directly with the city of Eagan to redesign their dirt jumping area. Some fundamental design flaws and a lack of adequate maintenance has left the current dirt jumping area virtually unutilized. Chris approached the city with some constructive suggestions and a willingness to take on the project himself and the city has granted him permission to rebuild the recreational area with the hope that some changes will increase use of the jumps.

Today marked the first build day for the Lexington Pump Track Project or LPTP, and as you can see by the pictures things went swimmingly! A good turn out of builders, beautiful weather, and proper planning helped complete the first phase of the project, a beginner pump track. Future phases will include a more advanced pump track, additional transitions and multiple lines throughout the area, re-building a dirt jump line, among other things.

Additional trail development and maintenance will take place each Monday throughout the summer.

Thanks to all the builders that made it out today and a big thanks to Chris for all his hard work!
