St. Paul Bike Blog

…you guys are watching the velodrome bike racing events of the Olympics. Fixed gear, no brakes, awesome bikes, 40+ degree turns, pushing, shoving, grinding, motor pacing, 40+mph, you can’t make this shit up. As an FYI, we have one of the world’s best velodromes is in Minneapolis at the National Sports Center. 47 degrees in the turns, made from Adzalia wood (before it became illegal to use it), escape velocity 60mph (the speed that would make you go up the track if you crashed). People my size LOVE track racing.
