Bring Your Wheels to the Pump Track

pump track roanoke

One of the most popular activities from GO Fest is available at Wasena Park year round. The pump track has been installed and is ready for you to enjoy with human-powered wheeled vehicles.

The pump track – located at Wasena Park near the skate park and between the paved greenway by the ball fields – is already proving popular. For those that haven’t seen or ridden around the loop yet, a pump track is an oval-shaped, banked track with rollers and steeply bermed corners for wheeled recreation.

It is open to any wheeled, but non-motorized, vehicle – bicycles, scooters, skateboards, roller blades. The track is three feet wide and is open during regular park hours, from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m.
