Lehigh Valley Velodrome


The Lehigh Valley Velodrome is one of the premier tracks in the country and has produced many of the junior and elite riders that have represented PA and the USA in national and world competitions. Since 2001 the Spring Track Carnival has been a fixture on the race calendar in PA and for many of the faithful at T-Town has ushered in the start of the track racing season and the first opportunity for racers of all levels to test their metal against the competition. For us older guys and gals Masters Track Nationals is on our home turf in August and that is reason enough to fill up those tires and lube that chain to get ready to race!

Meredith Group – GPOA is proud to promote the 2007 edition which is only 25 days (Saturday April 14th) away! So dust off that track bike and get ready for some fun in the sun (hopefully) at the concrete crater. There will be 3 events for Cat 2/3, 4, 5, Masters 30+, Women, and Juniors (10-14) plus an A & B Feature.

I am in the process of getting the paperwork into USAC and as soon as that is accomplished on line registration will be available on BikeReg.com. Entry fees are $15 for elite and masters, and $10 for juniors with $5 for an additional category of racing for those looking to get in a very full day of racing.

If you can distribute this email to your racing contemporaries I’d appreciate it. If you have any merchandise you’d like to donate for our junior awards let me know as well. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. See you on April 14th at T-Town!
