Kids on BMX bikes, mountain bikes, skateboards and scooters waited patiently through a grand opening ceremony of ribbon-cutting, remarks and recognitions, so they were more than ready to try out the new pump track Wednesday at Erickson Playfield. First announced three years ago, the 14,442-square-foot pump track is the largest in the Pacific Northwest built by Velosolutions and it’s the first adaptive track in the country. Port Angeles Parks & Recreation and Lincoln Park BMX Association led the project, which will provide a free, safe and all-ages recreational outlet located in the center of the city.
