If only we were all having this kind of fun… but wait!! What’s more fun than a weekend of classes and racing at the Velodrome? How about one put on by our awesome friends at UW? Ok, now we’re talking.
If you’d rather just have a look at the race flyer and stop reading this article, click here.
Saturday: Collegiate Track Class
Starting at 12:00, collegiate racers are invited for a free track class at the velodrome. All collegiate racers looking to participate on Sunday will need to have attended a track class prior to racing, so might as well make it free!! Or just eat more ramen and pay for a class… Even if you aren’t racing Sunday and would like to learn how to ride the track, you’re more than welcome to attend. If you have already taken a class at the velodrome (or at any velodrome) you’re already good to go for racing on Sunday.
