Pump Tracks

for a

Better World

#pumpforpeace is a global association initiated by Velosolutions. It wants to give kids in underprivileged communities access to cycling and action sports through pump tracks. #pumpforpeace introduces them to a healthy, respectful and tolerant lifestyle and believes that this, ultimately, will change the world.

How does #pumpforpeace make cycling more accessible?

#pumpforpeace facilitates the construction of a Velosolutions Pump Track, access to bikes, gear and support cyclists/teams, workshops and cooperations with youth organisations in underprivileged regions. #pumpforpeace raises the necessary funding and supports local charities to realise these projects. It focuses on sustainable initiatives and cooperates with governments, local organisations, musicians, local companies and involves the local community.

What is a pump track?

Velosolutions Pump Tracks are a worldwide success. They provide a playground for kids and adults alike, from beginners to professionals. A Velosolutions Pump Track provides a community with a sustainable and fun packed activity for all. A Velosolutions Pump Track is designed for all things on wheels. From mountain bikes to BMX’s and skateboards a pump track is a playground for wheels. By combining rolling jumps with turns, they are accessible for all.

How can you become a part of the #pumpforpeace journey?

Whether you are a government, city, a local charity or an individual who wants to make cycling more accessible, everyone can become a part. Spread the word, initiate a new project, help us raise funds or get hands-on as a volunteer.

The #pumpforpeace guardians are a team of very fine individuals from the action sport world who have realised that the noblest art is that of making others happy. Therefore, they have become ambassadors of #pumpforpeace and promote pump tracks around the world.

“Some people race because they wanted to win. I raced so I could see the world & experience new cultures. It was then when I realised there were way more important things in this world than beating your competitors. Over the years in my racing and travels, I’ve been involved in various bike related work programs and charities, but I’m super stoked to be part of #pumpforpeace as an ambassador, especially after witnessing first hand the impact community building and all-around good vibes this created in Lesotho that I visited earlier this year. Empowering people through bikes is the way forward.” - Anka Martin

Experience and passion for bringing change.

“I have personally experienced the power of cycling in my own life. The passion for cycling the sport was instilled with me from an early age, and I carry it with me in my life each day. So often we sit back and ask ‘What can I do?’. I know the cycling world and I have founded a company that builds pump tracks. I wanted to promote tolerance and provide even the most underprivileged with the same opportunities many of my friends, and I have had? I asked myself: “what can I do with this?” Well, the answer was #pumpforpeace. In this initiative, we are using our experience, our passion and our love of cycling to help bring about change in the best way we know.”  

– Claudio Caluori, CEO at Velosolutions, initiator of #pumpforpeace and a professional athlete for over a decade
