Yesterday was opening day at Philly Pump Track and it was awesome! The turn out was huge and everyone was really excited about being a part of this historic moment for off road cycling in the Philly area and also the North East. The awesome pump track was designed and built by Jim Dellavalle with the help a ton of local volunteers! Philadelphia mayor Michael Nutter came down to talk to the crowd and cut the ribbon for the grand opening of the track. He even hung out for a long time to watch the riders having fun on the track. I took a bunch of photos and video of the event. You can check out all my photos in the gallery below. Video coming soon!
