Uppsala kommuns pump track i Sävja är designad i samarbete med Martin Söderström. Anläggningen består av två banor, en enklare för de yngre och en större bana för mer lite mer erfarna åkare där man också kan åka parallellt med varandra och tävla om man vill. Vid sidan av banorna finns tre större hopp.

Kenny Belaey rides a slackline over a 112m drop in the French Alps at an altitude of 2700m.
Belgian Red Bull athlete and nine time world trial bike champion Kenny Belaey recently grabbed a bronze medal at the UCI World Championship in Andorra – his 12th medal in 14 participations.

After more than one year of preparation and six months of intensive training he succeeded in La Plagne, at an altitude of 2700 meters, to ride his bike over a 18m long slackline from one rock to another, over a 112m drop – proof of being perfectly in balance, not only resulting in spectacular footage, but also making a world first: Riding a highline on a bike.
