A pump track would be a truly fabulous addition to Bishopsteignton – a safe, inclusive and accessible space that would benefit children, teenagers, adults, and families alike. This isn’t just about bikes, scooters, and skateboards. It’s about creating opportunities, encouraging healthier lifestyles, improving physical fitness, boosting mental wellbeing, and giving our young people a positive place to spend their time.

The benefits of pump tracks in communities are well-documented. According to Sport England, participation in sports and physical activity positively affects mental health by reducing stress, anxiety, and depression. Additionally, getting children and teenagers involved in activities like cycling or skateboarding from a young age helps in maintaining physical fitness, combating obesity, and instilling a lifelong appreciation for exercise.

By supporting the creation of a pump track in Bishopsteignton, we are investing in the future health and happiness of our community. This project will not only provide an enriching environment for thrill-seekers and sports enthusiasts but will also function as a safe space for the community to gather and engage.

We have the opportunity to transform a section of our local area into a dynamic venue that complements our beautiful surroundings and enriches village life. Yet, we need support from local authorities, community leaders, and residents to bring this vision to reality.

Join us in advocating for the construction of a pump track in Bishopsteignton. Let's give our community a place where dreams can race.
