| The World Series of Bicycling will bring Olympic action to the Valley Preferred Cycling Centerevery Friday night this summer. We are pleased to announce the schedule of events for our acclaimed pro race series, now in it’s 37th year.The Friday night lineup, starting June 15th, is a mix of sprint and endurance events that will bring the world’s best track cycling talent to T-Town this summer. Last season, we brought in racers from 13 countries, including 12 Olympians. Fans, approximately 2,500 on any given Friday, flocked in to see international superstars compete with our hometown heros on popular nights like the Keirin Cup, the Sprint Gran Prix and the Madison Cup.One of the highlights of the season is the USA Cycling Junior National Track Championships on July 13th. The most promising junior track racers from across the USA will descend upon T-Town to compete for national titles on the country’s most celebrated velodrome. “We’re ecstatic to have been selected to host Junior Track Nationals for the next two years. We pride ourselves in our top-notch development programs and this is an opportunity for our future stars to shine,” said Marty Nothstein, Executive Director of the VPCC and an Olympic Gold Medalist who came up through these very programs.Many nights on the calendar feature an event from our reputable community programs, including the Red Robin Marty Nothstein Bicycle Racing League, the Air Products Developmental Cycling Program and the Teva Respiratory PeeWee Pedalers. This gives next generation of track talent the opportunity to share the spotlight with the pros and experience the thrill of racing under the Friday night lights. |
