Aug 29, 2009 : Boulder Velodrome
Monty's first trip to a Velodrome was very awesome! It was a great chance to put the new Fuji Obey bike to the test. No crashes, just lots of speed and fun. Here is some info about track cycling:
-- A velodrome is an arena for track cycling. Modern velodromes feature steeply banked oval tracks, consisting of two 180-degree circular bends connected by two straights.
-- Bicycles for velodromes have no brakes. They employ a single fixed rear gear, or cog, that does not freewheel. This helps maximize speed, reduces weight, avoids sudden braking while nevertheless allowing the rider to slow by pushing back against his pedals.
