Wikipedia says "A pump track is a circuit of rollers, banked turns and features designed to be ridden completely by riders "pumping" generating momentum by up and down body movements, instead of pedaling or pushing." So nothing to do with punctures then. The map rather coyly calls it Cycle Racing Facility.
