Riders at a Fife pump track can now test their speed, track their progress and compete with people from around the world thanks to the installation of pioneering new technology.
Vorld, designed by global pump track specialists Velosolutions, allows riders at Kennoway Pump Track to use their smartphones to accurately time laps, view local rankings and take part in global leaderboards and community challenges through the Vorld app.
With only one other pump track in Scotland currently using the system, the track alongside the Sandybrae Community Centre is now one of a small number of sites nationally offering this enhanced digital riding experience.
Installed earlier this month, the system is already proving popular with local riders, who can now record their lap times and appear on international leaderboards - helping to put Sandybrae firmly on the map within the global pump track community.
Kennoway Pump Track has become a well-used community space since opening in the summer of 2022, and has shown how high-quality, free-to-use cycling infrastructure can encourage physical activity, offer positive opportunities for young people, and create inclusive spaces for riders of all ages and abilities.
The £200,000 track, which was designed and built by Velosolutions, was funded via a range of sources including sportscotland’s Cycling Facilities Fund, Fife Council, the Coalfields Regeneration Trust, Levenmouth Reconnected, Velux, Technip FMC and Together Levenmouth.
With the Vorld infrastructure in place, riders can now access the system by downloading the Vorld app at www.vorld.com and following the instructions on-site.
Anyone interested in finding out more or seeing the system in action is encouraged to get in touch with Sandybrae Community Centre.
