 Dear Grey Distract Council 

Hi, my name is Harrison and I am going to be telling you why we need a downhill bike park in Greymouth. This would give us many health benefits, increase fitness and give us more activities to do in Greymouth.

The health benefits of bikeing/ cycling Just 32km per week can reduce the risk of heart disesase to less than half. Biking also reduces the chances of of type-two diabeties, all types of cancer, high blood pressure and obesity. which is why I think we should have a bike park to so we can try to lower the chances of serious illness.

I think we need more things to do for fitness in Greymouth because we don't have a lot of options. Only 10% of secondary school students met the current recommandations of 60 minutes of exercise a day last year. Also a lot of people that age would like to ride there bikes down a hill with jumps on it. So if we had a bike park the 10% would rise. 

More activities to do in Greymouth. One in three adults and one in five children are over weight in New Zealand which means we really needmore activities like a bike park to help people lose weight. And if you gain weight and don't exercise could lead to death because physical inactivity contributes to 8 percent of all deaths.

In conclusion I think we should have a public down hill bike park in Greymouth because it will help with fitness and health. I hope you use my ideas and make it happen.

sincerely 

Harrison
