When #rideburnside was located at Newland Park from June to September 2020, the 'wheels' community got behind this popular destination. Here is a time-lapse video taken of #rideburnside from 20 July to 3 August.

275,751 laps of the track happened at the Newland Park site before it was located to Miller Reserve in September, it's third destination in the year-long trial.

In December the track moved to Kensington Park Reserve, Kensington Park, where it will remain until the conclusion of the trial on 8 March 2021. Already over 81,000 laps have been achieved in 6 weeks.

#rideburnside has been set up at Miller Reserve, Linden Park, today, just in time for school holidays.

A big thanks to the Depot team who did a great job in setting up the pump track yesterday.

The track will remain at Miller Reserve until 14 December 2020, after which it will move to its final location of the trial, Kensington Park Oval.

Last week the students and teachers from Newland Park Kindergarten visited the #rideburnside track in Newland Park.

Beautiful photos of the children in action on the track can be found here ( https://bit.ly/3aUo7KH ) including a risk analysis undertaken before the excursion got underway!
