This is a wonderful velodrome by the looks of it, I went out to see it and was very impressed by the surface and innovative construction. Classic content: 200 M and steeply banked, perfect for madisons, sprinting and spectators! Not quite 10 laps to the mile but a nice small track for exciting yet safe racing. Tactical racing will live again on this track! The large tracks are BORING. They are great for kilos, pursuits and road riders.
