DING!
I think that I'll be there, this park looks the Mutts Nuts!!!! The Trek bikes are a nice plus too.

My friend Chad is running one of the machines there, been working on the park from scratch. Say's its looking pretty killer too. Looking forward to it getting completed!

It is so sweet to have a park this close to home. I think I'll be hanging out there quite a bit throughout the summer.

Check out this thread...http://bb.nsmb.com/showthread.php?t=110460 Lot's more info. I drive past there on my way home from work most days and it looks like it will be awesome. We've stopped by after they where done working and walked around and it is sweet! There's a huge (8'x35') curved wallride that's almost a 180, berms, jumps, skinnies, mini rock gardens etc. You could probably spend hours there and not get bored.

I scoped it out tonight. Two wallrides, one is huge. Some big tables, a step up, a smaller stepdown, a pump track, some cool bridgework, some bad ass berms, its pretty killer looking.

Steve and I were there tonight too. There are a bunch of smaller jumps that aren't done yet. It actually looks pretty good. Tax money actually put to good use.

It's a really positive sign, nice to see the city of Burnaby making such nice use of that land. It's going to be fantastic.

holy crap that wooden pump track is sick! I'm jealous... but I guess that's what you can get with city $$$.

They have to work really hard if they want it open on time, but it looks like there will be an overlap of the park being open and stuff being worked on. The park looks amazing though.
