The Turon Avenue BMX Track in Baulkham Hills is officially back in action - and it's already getting the tick of approval from local riders.
Following a recent upgrade, the track has been resurfaced and reshaped to deliver a smoother, faster and more fun ride. With refreshed jumps, rollers and flowing sections, the upgraded layout caters for everyone from first timers finding their balance to confident riders looking to sharpen their skills.
To put the track through its paces, riders from the Castle Hill BMX Club were among the first to roll in, testing out the new surface and features. Their early verdict? Big smiles, plenty of speed and a track that's ready for action.
Mayor of The Hills Shire, Dr Michelle Byrne said it was great to see the track come alive again so quickly.
"This upgrade is all about giving our community fun, free spaces to get active, and there's nothing better than seeing local riders straight back on the track enjoying it," Mayor Byrne said.
"BMX tracks like this are incredibly popular with young people and families, and it's great to see Turon Avenue Reserve back in action with a track that's safer, more fun and built to last."
Tara Cochran of the Castle Hill BMX Club said the new upgraded track was a great facility not just for BMX riders but anyone with a love of getting out on two wheels.
"Pump tracks like Turon Avenue Reserve are fantastic because they're free, accessible and can be enjoyed by BMX riders, scooter kids and skateboarders alike," Ms Cochran said.
"This upgrade gives our riders another high-quality, local track where they can build skills, confidence and enjoy BMX in a safe, modern space."
Set within Turon Avenue Reserve, the BMX track sits alongside other park facilities, making it a great spot for families to spend time together.
The upgraded Turon Avenue Reserve BMX Track is now open and free for the community to enjoy.
