Are bikes going to be allowed in this park?

@PENGUANS No prob, I'll post up more as the construction continues.

Looks great. I've taken a few sneak peeks and they have made good progress since the summer. The kidney bowl looks insane, much bigger in person.

Thunderwood- any insight to what will be done with the area beyond the street section, the area where the ditch leads? I know the plans had another bowl included. Also, I can see they just left the vert ramp alone, is it going to stay where it has always been or is it in the plans to demolish and rebuild it elsewhere?

[thunderwood]

@Poolskater I believe that where the vert ramp is located now is actually where the 2nd bowl will be (eventually) going after they complete this phase. So, the vert ramp looks like it will be moved to the far side of the park and be re-done. Judging by the time it has taken so far I have a feeling that the vert ramp isn't going anywhere soon and that it will be some time before we ever see the full 2nd bowl.
