Check it out – Boulder now has a velodrome. A velodrome is large track for road cycling, made for racing and training purposes.

According to the Boulder Daily Camera, the track will be marketed towards cyclists of all abilities and levels – creating a nice venue or jumping off point for those wanting to start racing.

I’m an avid cyclist, however I’ve never used a velodrome or worn spandex in my life. I promote more urban and biking for utility and practical use and don’t really run with the racing crowd. But next time I’m up in Boulder I might stop by. (You rent special bikes too, sans brakes for lighter, faster equipment.)

The official name is “Boulder Indoor Cycling,” and they’re located at 3350 Frontier Avenue, in Boulder.
