U.S. Cycling legends turn out to help "Save the Track"

"I wouldn't be the cyclist I am today if it weren't for the Northbrook Velodrome." So were the words of U.S. Postal cyclist Kenny Labb?, who grew up just twelve miles away from the aging facility. Kenny, along with teammate Robbie Ventura and U.S. cycling legends Andy Hampsten and Tom Schuler, joined about one hundred dedicated supporters of the "Save the Track" movement in suburban Chicago for a benefit dinner.
But the benefit turned into a celebration when event organizer Pete Janutis announced that to date the amount of money raised had reached more than two-hundred thousand dollars, surpassing the initial goal for resurfacing the track. However, Pete cautioned that the process is not quite over yet, because the actual cost will be determined through a bidding process this spring. Additionally, the track hopes to upgrade the timing system and other areas as well.
Regardless, the support for the track in the community was clear, with people still pulling out their wallets for the silent auction, including a Colnago jersey signed by Ernesto himself, and a Saturn Team jersey signed by members of the 2003 team, (including a certain rider who is now riding for Fassa Bortolo!).
The evening also included a hearty prime rib dinner donated by E.J. of E.J.'s Place in Skokie. It wasn't hard to understand E.J.'s passion for the sport after seeing signed jersey's from Saturn and 7-Eleven hanging on the walls.
After dinner, each of the special guests talked about how track cycling, and particularly the Ed Rudolph Velodrome, had contributed to their careers. Native midwest rider Robbie Ventura grew up racing in Northbrook and nearby Kenosha, Wisconsin. "The thing that this track represents for me is that I made my best friends - and my father made his best friends - at the track," said Ventura. "As far as cycling goes, it has given me my edge. Learning from people the cool skills you can't learn on the road - it's an area where you can just dial, tweak and change. I was always racing [on the track] with higher level and better guys, and I had to do that to survive. I had to draft and hang on to a wheel, and I use that same stuff on the road."
Even a good silent auction needs a model.

Kenny Labb? also expressed how important having a track was to him, and how important it will be to developing the future of cycling in the U.S. "Even the road riders have benefits from riding on the track - learning how to ride in a pack safely is important. Especially for the youth, [the track] is a safe environment to train. The learning curve is a lot quicker too, and it is very important [for the younger riders.] "
Labb? remembered hearing about this facility when he was growing up in nearby Mt. Prospect, Ill, and that he demanded that his parents take him to see the track, which at the time seemed like the mecca of cycling. "I think the movement behind resurfacing this track is amazing - it's incredible what this group has done. We sent a strong message to the community that the track will remain and will stay. I think now is a very important time for cycling in the U.S. to have tracks like this to have a long-term future for the youth."
Andy Hampsten and Tom Schuler even have ties to the Northbrook facility. Hampsten, who grew up in North Dakota, came to Madison, Wisc. to train in his younger years. And even though he was told by a trainer that he had "not one fast-twitch muscle fiber" he knew the value of track racing. "Someone taught me how to get second place in a miss-and-out here at Northbrook," Hampsten remembered. "It's fun to be back in the midwest where I started racing.
The evening concluded with Hampsten telling stories of his triumphs in the Giro, Tour de Suisse and his win on Alpe d'Huez. Hampsten also told the story of his infamous climb over the Gavia Pass during the 1988 Giro, giving the audience incredible details of that stage.
