lol

At least they got the hang of it afterwards.

Looks like a lot of fun on such a short track. 166 meter?

Commentator is funny too.

Any idea where this is?

Oh I looked it up. 142 meters (!!), 50 degrees. Forest Hill Velodrome. Very nice.

I loved it when the guy in the crowd yelled out "Go back to Toronto!"

Forest City is a great velodrome.....it's banks are much steeper than most N.American velodromes.

cdr...it's located in London, Ontario......a couples hours west of and just far enough away for them to dislike Toronto

That's really cool looking. I wish that we could build something like that around here. I wonder if they'd release info on it (foot print, materials list, etc).

The Vandedrome portable velodrome. 170m with 54 degree banking. I don't know what happened to this thing, but if it's still around you can rent it.
