Please take a moment and read this great article about the Philly Pumptrack by Julian Hamer of Philadelphia Neighborhoods. There is also a video where you get to meet some of our regular volunteers!  Thank you Ray Louder, Ahmad, Ibrahim, and Kevin!

Philadelphia Neighborhoods

The Friends of the Philly Pumptrack would like to share this wonderful video with you.

Nathanial Bartholomew, famed Director of "Make Every Second Count" (the first 3D mountain bike movie), filmed this while visiting the Philly Pumptrack with his boys on the same day that the Cabot Creamery Cooperative honored the Philly Pumptrack with a volunteer appreciation day. Earlier that day, Kenn, Ms. Lucinda Hudson, Ed Fagan and the Cabot Co-Op representatives were on air with Marilyn Russell #MarilynRussell of 95.7 WBEN-FM, and they sent out the BEN FM Ice Cream truck. 

Thanks for the great video Nat! We hope you and the family can make it down to see us again soon.

Thanks to all the sponsors and volunteers that make the Philly Pumptrack a reality.

Due to the impending foul weather of hurricane Arthur and in observance of the Independence Day Weekend, the pumptrack is closed until Monday the 7th.

Have a happy and safe 4th of July everyone!

See you on the 7th.

Dear Friends of the Philly Pumptrack, 

Many people have been asking us how they can donate to the Pumptrack. As we are a project of the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia, they set up a donation page for us! Please help us raise money for bike parts, better security and more pop-up tents to provide shade and shelter for our visitors. Donations through this site are tax deductible.

Please help us provide more opportunities to put more kids on bikes, and get our dedicated volunteers better rain wear.

Thank You,

Heidi, Harlan and Kenn
