Portland isn’t know for being the most accomodating city for mountain bikers, but finding a place to ride is about to get a bit easier with the construction on a new indoor park dubbed the Lumberyard.
As reported by Bike Portland, the venue will open with 50,000 square feet of singletrack, tabletops and jumps and if all goes well a 18,000 square foot expasion will follow. The building was once a bowling alley. Plans call for an opening in late February.
If the idea sounds familiar, it’s because the owners hired Joe Prisel, who designed the two Ray’s Indoor facilities in Cleveland and Milwaukee.
