Excitement from projects such as the BMX Track. Projects created by the people, the public, for themselves. Instead of failed attempts of 'development' that leave a large part of our town in a permanent state of demolition. Come on think out of the box, think sideways, think up, be brave and give permission to build the BMX Track and give us all something to be really proud of in Penrith.

Healthy kids! - around 27 per cent of U.K children are now overweight and research suggests the main problem is a continual reduction in the amount of exercise children take, a BMX track is a fun and exciting way to stay in shape...!

Crime reduction...! give the kids something recreational and positive to do...! (coaching too!)

In areas I have been involved with BMX clubs there has been a sense of belonging associated with such facilities and a feeling that the local council care for the health and safety of the community they represent.

BMX is family orientated sport and is suitable for kids and adults of all ages and is now in the olympics.

Having seen first hand the tracks at Lytham, Preston, Coppull, Heywood, Crewe and many more...I can see the benefits to local community and more importantly to the children.

So I wish Penrith BMX Club all the best in getting a track built. Good Luck
