I've been wanting to try track cycling for a while. So glad I get the opportunity to do it! A shame that it's 2 hours away though.

That's like NASCAR banking - so steep you can barely walk up it.

The website says 15mph minimum. The regulations also stipulate a bike with a BB height of no less than 11.25" and cranks no longer than 170mm. Also an 85" gear minimum.
I'm very sad that my vintage track frame doesn't qualify - with the largest tires that fit, the BB is only 10.75" high or so
Thankfully they have bikes to rent!
