Arizona Track Series

Saguaro Velo track series will be held at the San Diego Velodrome again this year. This is a low key practice series designed for both the novice and experienced track racers alike. Saturday’s practice session is free, while Saturday and Sunday’s competition is $15/day or $20 for both days. There is track bike rental at the velodrome for $10 per day. If you are new at track riding you may ride your road bike on Saturday and compete in the time trial events (of course, you will be restricted to one gear).
