Velodrome

Calshot Velodrome is the oldest indoor cycling venue in the UK. It is located inside an old aircraft hangar, is unheated and has a reputation for being rather cold. The current wooden velodrome was built in 1996 to replace an older slightly smaller wooden track. The former wooden track was a shortened version of the London six-day racing track used at Earls Court in 1967 (not to be confused with a similar track used at Wembley from 1968 to 1980). The current track is 142.85 metres long with bankings of 45° and straights at approximately 20°. Calshot Winter Track League, run under British Cycling rules, is held weekly from October to February.
