Battenhall Bike Track

 Worcester Council are pushing hard to establish more of these facilities across the county.

The pupils of Year 10 enjoyed a blast around the pump track in the sunshine, but the wind did make it tricky when their wheels left the ground.

Some of the pupils are content with a slow and steady meander around the track, whilst their are others that look to push the boundaries and test themselves to go further and faster each time around.

This eventually culminated in a challenge from the Tutor to one of the pupils. He was watched as he consistently cleared a considerable distance on one of the jumps. To show  how much trust staff placed in his ability on a bike, the Tutor lay in front of the lip and challenged him to jump over as he lay on the track. After a few run ups to gather his courage he sailed over and past flawlessly.
