Projects
Sarnia
The Sarnia Kiwanis Bike Park began with a series of Community consultations in the Spring of 2009. Once a Location was determined and the Design elements were established the construction phase began in the Spring of 2010. The Bike Park would not have been possible without the unwavering support of the Sarnia Kiwanis Group and their generous donation. The Park features Beginner, Intermediate and Expert Jump lines, a Pumptrack and a Skills section. The Bike Park has become the social hub for Riders in the City and will typically host hundreds of youth each and everyday throughout the Summer months. Dirt by Design is proud to have been there in the beginning and we are extremely proud to announce that we have been asked to continue our Maintenance role for the upcoming 2017 season. Big thank you to the City of Sarnia and its Parks and Recreation Department for supporting BMX and Cycling.
Watford
The Libro Financial Watford BMX Park began because two young men believed that their Community would benefit from a safe and progressive place for them to ride. They were passionate about riding and they had the courage to challenge their Community to step up and support their vision. The Park opened in August of 2012 after several months of Community consultation, Site evaluation and Design consideration. The primary goal of the project was to deliver a Park that had Beginner to Expert features that allowed for natural progression. It’s been incredible to watch the 10 and 11 year old Kids that showed up that first summer without any idea of how to navigate a Bike Park progress to where they absolutely shred the Expert lines. A big shout out to Warwick Township and the Village of Watford for their incredibly progressive view of Recreation and Sport.
Kimball Road Trails
These amazing trails are the home base of the Dirt by Designs crew; No other Bike Park design and construction firm has the capacity or the facilities to develop, build and test features and obstacles before they ever get built for the Public. Over the last decade this facility has been invaluable in developing and perfecting the skills of the entire Dirt by Design team.
