Bend Velodrome Project

"It may be a fast and thrilling sport, but I feel protected in the velodrome. I am experienced at cycling on the road, but I find it difficult on days when I am especially anxious. On the track, I don’t have to worry about cars, pedestrians or dogs running into my path."

‘I feel protected in the velodrome’: how track cycling helped ease my anxiety Whizzing around on a bike with no brakes is strangely meditative – and has helped me to rediscover my adventurous, carefree attitude of old

The defunct Boulder Valley Velodrome is being resurrected to restore the 250-meter cycling track as a training ground for competitive cyclists and a hub for family-friendly community activities.

The iconic, red-walled Velodrome has been closed for 3+ years but is officially under contract to be purchased by BVV Holdings LLC and will be operated by the nonprofit - Team Colorado Cycling.

“The list of needed repairs is long and expensive, but we are passionate about meeting the demand that exists for a cycling track of this caliber and its potential as a hub for family-friendly activities like ride-in movies, concerts, festivals and food trucks,” said Todd Stevenson of Team Colorado Cycling. “Our first step is to tap into community support to help pay for needed repairs with the goal of re-opening full-time with weekly racing and other events starting early summer.” https://gofund.me/afc86607
