FAQ

Do I Need Racing Experience to be Eligible?
No racing experience is necessary.  You only need the ability to ride a bike and desire to learn and experience the sport of track cycling. For advanced classes riders are only eligible if they have completed a basic course or have significant racing experience. Please contact Bob at the Valley Preferred Cycling Center if there are eligibility questions.

How Much Does the Program Cost?
Perhaps the best part about the Air Products Program is its cost: FREE OF CHARGE for the youth courses and only $60 for adult courses!!!  In addition to instruction from experienced coaches, first-class track bicycles, a  t-shirt and use of a helmet  are all provided(quantities and sizes are limited), although we encourage everyone to bring their own helmet (PeeWee Pedalers must bring their own bicycle and helmet).

Where Does the Program Meet?
The Air Products Program is held at the Lehigh Valley Velodrome, which is located one block west of Routes 100 & 222, Trexlertown, PA. Click here for directions.
