I agree. Let's see current usage/spectatorship increase before going

further. I raced there 2 years ago, Fast Twitch Fridays, and in the

beginner field there were at most 8-10 racers. Considering that could

have included on-the-road cat 3-5, that's not alot. I drove 1.5 hours

from Hood River, and I knew of at least 1 other guy who came up from

Corvallis. Where the homies at?!!



I'd rather see the resources go into re-paving the current track.

Then again, if an indoor track would market/allow contests such as

rollerblading,skateboarding, or roller derby, it might have a chance.

that don't use the velodrome that we are already lucky enough to have.

The first step in supporting the idea of an indoor velodrome would be to

come to events at the current outdoor velodrome. Even better would be to

support it by helping with organizing programs or finding sponsorship.

As use of the current velodrome grows the possibility of supporting an

indoor velodrome becomes much more likely.
