Help Build The Woods Room In Pittsburgh

June 6, 2025

The Woods Room is coming to Pittsburgh and they need your support!

Last year The Wheel Mill announced its closure that caught a ton of people off guard after years of amazing riding from the Pittsburgh scene and riders all around the world who made the voyage to ride the park. A few weeks back it was announced the Mike Potoczny and crew are opening up a brand new facility called The Woods Room that’s bound to be even bigger and better. Here’s a video where they talk about the project, but they need your support to get the wheels rolling. Here’s the Indiegogo you can donate to to support the new park!

“The Woods Room is a new 50,000-square-foot indoor bike park coming to Pittsburgh, PA and we need your help to make it happen.

Designed for BMX riders and Mountain Bikers of all skill levels, The Woods Room will be a year-round destination for riding, progression, and community. From beginner-friendly pump tracks to advanced jump lines, we’re creating a space where everyone can ride, hang out, and grow the scene together.

We’re launching this project with grassroots support. Your contribution on Indiegogo will go directly toward building ramps, upgrading the facility, and making this dream real for riders in Western PA and beyond.

Vinyl BMX – ID

April 4, 2021

Whenever Vinyl BMX drops a new video, we know we’re going to be in for a treat. This is a new mix of footage from the past few years with solid riding and filmwork at some of the best trails spots. Needless to say, if you’re looking to get your trails fix in, this is the one you’re going to watch. It sounds like Tom Arkus is sitting on a ton of footage and we might be getting a few more of these videos this year, which would be pretty damn rad since there aren’t enough trails videos popping up these days, and usually the footage and / or editing is pretty rough. Check it!

“A long overdue montage of some really incredible spots in Pennsylvania and England. This video features sick riders from the U.S. & Europe. Nate Halahan, Luke Halahan, Dunny, Brian Coleman, Tom Arkus, Chase Zink, Steven Mueller, Mark Potoczny, Mike Potoczny, Foerske, Red Belg, Gillian, Bentley, Cam McCreadie, Brandon Christie, Pi, Weexly, Dimitri, Phil, David Leep, Wingham homies, Gro Trails Crew, & Friends.
