Ok then. If they build this place and it gets great reviews then I might be pursuaded to show up. However, I'm still thinking it might be great for cyclocross...
You don't need much space for cyclocross races. Just lots of parking.
But it would really suck to get a flat tire from a needle. Or crash out on some broken glass and get aids or something. Or get human feces in your face when the rider in front of you plows over a pile. Gives me the shivers thinking about the place.
A large part of teh plan is to bring in new "dirt" (rock, gravel,sand, whatever) to cover teh dirty dirt (decades of highway run off, homeless toilet, etc)
I really think your concerns are a little dramatic.

Come to one of the meetings. I have been to two so far....please, find out more about it before you go around berating it.
I have very little experience with CX but I thought you guys like it better when there is 3 inches of snot to roll run through.

This park will most likely stay dry all the way through the winter. And it will twist and wind around like the Worm. Lots of corners. I guess you could bust out some temp bariers and get CX with it.
Like I said show up to the next meeting. It will be in2 weeks probably up at the SandPoint park (old naval station) but check with the guys that really know cause I am NOT in the know.
