Ashland Dirt Jumps
Creating a better riding and skill-building experience for youth and beginning riders in Ashland.
The New Dirt Jumps Park is OPEN!
Work took place in June 2022!
The Board of Directors for RVMBA hired professional trail builder Earthworx LLC to improve and rebuild the Ashland Dirt Jumps Park for a budget of $15,000. Private fundraising has been completed for the park on city land, in partnership with Ashland Parks and Recreation Department.
This project dramatically improved an overly worn down park, improves drainage and weed control, and will create a better riding and skill-building experience for youth and beginning riders in Ashland. The rebuilt park fills an immediate need in the region, as delays continue on the more permanent asphalt pump track and skills park that is to be implemented in a new East Main Park. (Plans here.)
This rebuild wouldn't be possible without the financial support of RVMBA members who gave generously to the project.

Project Details
The Board of Directors for RVMBA propose hiring professional trail builder Earthworx LLC to improve and rebuild the Ashland Dirt Jumps Park for a budget of $15,000. Private fundraising is underway for the park on city land, with a fully-funded target date of June 1, 2022. Work will begin mid-June 2022 and will be completed within about a week.
This project would improve an overly worn down park, would improve drainage and weed control, and will create a better riding and skill-building experience for youth and beginning riders in Ashland. The rebuilt park would fill an immediate need in the region, as delays continue on the more permanent asphalt pump track and skills park that is to be implemented in a new East Main Park. (Plans here.)
Approval for this plan has been provided by the Ashland Parks & Rec and is shovel-ready.
