There’s no place like home. Well in Eric Porter’s case, his home town of Louisville, KY has a new attraction – the Mega Cavern Bike Park. The facility currently has about 320,000 square feet of dirt jumps, rollers, and XC trails. Eric got a chance to check out the cavern with his kids ripping around on their little DB machines! All in the DiamondBack family. Video by Justin Olsen.

That place looks like a dreamland, but how is it going to sustain itself? Are there enough riders who’ll use it to fund the place? I am totally clueless about that sort of business, but I was always curious about that. Same goes for Ray’s and other for-profit parks. The space looks awesome with those granite walls, like a mine or something.

@Rico: it looks like a mine because it used to be a mine.

Temps stay the same more or less year round. Rain closing trails, snow….too hot and humid out, too cold, this place has it covered. New bucket list ride for me.

I know a lot of folks weren’t impressed in the original post, but I still think this looks pretty cool. I’m surprised they didn’t incorporate the cave wall into a bermed turn at some point.
