new plans look really good. Would love the addition of another pump track and even a bmx track. Never venture to chicky on weekends (normally save it for days off work) as I been told it gets stupidly busy is it really that bad?


No not really, a mate and I usually head up Saturday mornings arriving 830 or so and you might see one or two others before 930/10. Even in high summer it's still a later morning before busy.

It's called Flow Line and is to the left of the two pyramid drops, where some of the old shore used to be. It is a series of doubles and singles, all rollable but designed to be boosted. It was remodelled cos the right angle bend half way made it really tough to retain / regain enough speed to cleanly clear the lower set of doubles. Haven't ridden the new version yet but saw it just after completion while it was closed for bedding in and the jump into right hand berm looked awesome so cannot wait for next trip up there.
