The city of Kenosha sits in the southeastern corner of Wisconsin, 45 minutes south of Milwaukee and north of Chicago. On warm evenings, Kenoshans seek exercise just like people everywhere—basketball players pull up for jumpers, golfers squeeze in a few more holes before dark, and bicyclists head out for a leisurely ride. Or maybe a not-so-leisurely ride.
The Washington Park Velodrome, a 333-meter banked oval track, draws a competitive crowd on summer evenings. It is the only velodrome in the state of Wisconsin and the oldest operating velodrome in the country. Faithful supporters believe that anyone who doesn’t visit the velodrome is missing out on something.
“They’re making a mistake, wherever they’re at, they should be here watching this,” said Kerry Wynn. “This is a great sport.”

"The Cleveland Velodrome is open. After a five-year, organized effort by the nonprofit Fast Track Cycling, the 166 meter, banked wooden oval has a schedule of riding hours, with “track 101” instructional sessions filling up fast with new riders. The first ever state track cycling championship to be held on a velodrome in Ohio will happen September 15, 2012. The track was designed by velodrome entrepreneur Dale Hughes, and built by volunteers."
