Nice Find in St Louis

I was driving home to Iowa and cursing traffic while on a detour through the middle of St. Louis when Susan and I happened across ths wonderful little find...a velodrome!



Of course we had our bikes stuffed in the back of my Element...Susan promptly exclaimed, "Let's stop!" So we piled out, did a quick deck change into our kits, and rode for an hour.







It takes a little getting used to riding on the steeply banked curves, but once you do it is very fun. If you ever get a chance to ride on one I recommend it.






After an hour of riding we decided it was time to go. We sure felt at home, but alas we had to remind ourselves we were still in downtown St. Louis...
