一.Pump tracks are SO cool 非常酷的Pump Tracks
Welcome to the wonderful world of Pump. Pump tracks are the hottest thing to sweep the world since probably the Hula Hoop.They’re fun, and they make great training. Riders of all styles and levels can dig them, and even the neighbors get into it (if you have cool neighbors).
On my site I get lots of questions about designing and building pump tracks. I answer many questions on the site, but I thought it was time to put all of the essential info in one place. This ebook contains never-before-published information.Special thanks to Steve Wentz, who started the North American pump track movement, and to my wife @b, who will soon let me ride in our new back yard.

歡迎來到Pump的美妙世界。Pump track大概是橫掃世界的最熱門的話題，他們的樂趣或許是從呼拉圈而來的。
透過Pump track的訓練，所有風格和不同層次的玩家們都能發揮各自的潛力。如果你有個很好的鄰居，願意將他家後院也讓你連結那將更為完美。
在我的網站上，我得到許多關於設計和修造Pump track的問題。 我也回答了許多問題，但我認為現在是時候把所有的重要信息集中放在一個地方。
而這篇ebook包含了從未在之前出版過的所有信息。
特別感謝對史蒂夫溫茲，開始推展北美洲Pump track的運動，也很感謝我的妻子，這將很快讓我在我們新的後院享受騎乘的樂趣。

二.What is a pump track 什麽是Pump Track
A pump track is a continuous loop that you can ride without pedaling. Yes, you actually gain speed — over 20 mph — by
“pumping” rollers and berms. Most pump tracks are roughly oval, with cross-over lines. A few contain gap jumps, but the
best use steep berms and smooth rollers to build speed and create smiles.

一個連續的迴圈，你不需要踩踏就可以速度超過20英里，由“ 拉車頭與壓車頭的方式 ”。
大多數Pump路面是以橢圓形的交叉線組成的。但最好使用高低起伏和幾個包含間距小落差來生成速度和製造樂趣。

三.Know your pump track history 了解Pump Track的由來
The first pump tracks were probably the dense BMX trails of the‘70s and ‘80s. The modern pump track revolution traces to
Australian downhillers. In 2003 a pro named Myles Mead told me about a track that slalomed downhill then looped back up
— the guys were actually pumping rollers uphill. In 2005 Mick Hannah’s steeply bermed backyard appeared in the movie
Earthed 2, and the world saw its first pump track.
Steve Wentz was just ahead of the curve. In December 2004 the pro downhiller built a 150-foot-long L-shaped track at
The Fix Bike Shop in Boulder, CO. At first nobody could even ride the ultratight corners,
but soon the local crew was sweeping off the snow and ripping on a daily basis.
I posted the track on my site, www.leelikesbikes.com, and the Pump Track Nation was born.
Emails poured in from all over the world: Thailand, Sweden, Malaysia,Australia and throughout the United States.
Tracks popped up in parks,lots and yards. Ray’s MTB in Cleveland, OH built an indoor two-lane pump track out of wood.
This track was included in the 2006 3Ride Pro Invitational event – the first sanctioned pump track race. BTW, Brian
Lopes killed it.

四.Why build one? 為何要建造一座Pump Track
If you like bikes, and you have access to a small piece of land, you should build a pump track.
That’s all there is to it.
Pump tracks fit just about anywhere. They can be ridden by anyone. They are a ridiculously
effective workout. They build skills like crazy. They improve other sports like skiing and motocross.
They bring cool people together. They stop the erosion of the modern family. And they are really,
really fun.

如果你喜歡自行車，并且擁有一小塊的空地，那麼你應該修一條pumping Track來玩玩。因為pumping Track任何地方都適合。
不論大人或小孩都可以騎乘這樣的路段。他們是一種令人感到愉悅而有效的鍛煉，並從中獲的超高技術的提升。
pumping Track改進了其他體育像滑雪和摩托車越野賽的場地限制，由於可以建在你家後院，所以停止了人們呆在家裡被各項電子產品的侵蝕。
pumping Track真的非常有趣！



五.Convincing the authorities 說服你周圍的人
Not everyone thinks the way we do. Poor souls.
If you find yourself struggling to close the deal with your parents/government/spouse, try slinging
these stones:
- Less maintenance, water and chemistry than a lawn. Xeriscape with a purpose.
- Great technique training. For bikes, skis,snowboard, moto or anything like that.
- Great for overall fitness.
- Great for mental strength. Focus, discipline, confidence. Your grades will improve.
- Keeps you near home, near your beloved family. Family values!
- Hours and hours of fun in a safe, healthy environment.
- It can still look really nice. Flagstones in the infield, flowers on the berms … Better Homes and Pump Tracks, baby!

並不是每個人的想法都跟我們一樣的。有些人就是不能認同！
如果你努力的尋求父母/政府/配偶的支持，請嘗試以下的方式溝通︰
-跟草坪比起來，pump土坡的維護較少，並且不需要化學肥料。
-不論自行車、滑雪板、摩托車都能藉由pump的運動，獲得技術的訓練。
-pumping Track 是很好的全身運動。
-pumping Track 可以強化你的心理強度，增加你的信心，並從中獲的進步。
-如果pumping Track 建在你家後院，不但可以讓鄰居親近，還能提升家庭觀念。
-時時刻刻在一個安全健康的環境裡製造樂趣。
-這一切看起來真的很美，石板花在整理過的泥地上，溫暖的家，pumping Track，和小孩。
