Pumptrack amenity installed on Oso Creek Trail for Bike Safety Month

In honor of Bike Safety Month, the City of Mission Viejo is excited to announce the installation of a temporary pumptrack. The track will be located along the Oso Creek Trail just below the Norman P. Murray Community Center's playground in the Celebration Garden next to the bridge.

The track is available free to the public beginning today through May 19 from 7 am to dusk.

A pumptrack is a closed circuit track consisting of rollers, banked turns, and other features that allow riders to use their momentum to propel themselves forward. It's a fun and challenging way to practice bike skills and improve fitness.

We encourage the community to enjoy our trail system and we hope this temporary amenity encourages more people to explore the Oso Creek Trail. The track is for non-motorized bicycles and scooters, so please wear a properly fitted helmet and follow the posted rules.
