The next generation of cyclists can now gear up on the first aluminum surfaced velodrome track in the world. It will be in a controlled, car-free environment, and it will be for everyone.
TUCSON, Arizona — Vegetation sits in the area behind Musselman Honda Circuit, but not for too much longer.
"There is a large segment of the community that has wanted a velodrome in Tucson for many years," said Glenn McCreedy, a longtime Tucson cyclist and former competitor. "I had to replicate a track basically at Rancho Vistoso by having my high school friend motorpace me in an old Chevy truck," said Sky Christopherson, a cycling world record holder and former Olympian."That's how we trained."
"We plan youth and school programs to get youngsters involved in the cycling communities so they can reap the benefits of cycling and their true potential," said McCreedy.
