On a 1921 square metre area in Viršuliškės, the pump track (Viršuliškių g. 30) consists of hills and slides for cycling, rollerblading, skateboarding or scootering.
The small and larger slides and curves are arranged so that you don't have to push yourself to get around the track (no matter what the vehicle), while more experienced users can also do jumps. Unlike similar skateparks, this is the place to start for all levels of riders or amateurs with any non-motorised vehicle.
These tracks are designed to help you gain momentum and move without pedalling, by controlling your body and distributing your weight correctly. The action is similar to swinging on a swing.
Safety is very important on this track, so a helmet is a must, while knee and elbow pads and gloves are recommended. Before going out on the track, you should adjust the bike, for example by lowering the seat all the way down, or by removing any additional accessories such as a basket or a kickstand. You should move in the same direction as the majority of riders and keep an eye on them to avoid collisions. It is also important to assess your own skills and be friendly and supportive of newcomers.
The pump track area in Viršuliškės has modern landscaping, walkways and benches.
