The Velodrome in
Kissena Park (
Flushing, Queens) reopened in 2004 after major renovations. This bike racing track, originally built for the 1964 Olympic trials, had been neglected until an overhaul in 2003. Now the beautiful 400-meter banked asphalt racing track features viewing stands, a fence, and a tower for race officials. The Kissena Park Velodrome is full of racers from May through September, run by the Kissena Cycling Club.
