I'll join in too! What the hell my father; I'm Told; broke the Bank in
Monte Carlo and won El Gordo; the Spanish National Lottery; after escaping
a Communist Revolution in Portugal in the '30's!
Hell I'm just as likely to win!

In parts of Europe there are cycling clubs that own their own circuit track,
about half the size of pir. Pir could become an amateur sports complex that
could include an indoor center with a running track, velodrome, and
multi-use sports courts. Why not include a skate park, bmx, and cylocross
course as well. There may also be enough room for a few soccer fields as
well. I'll pay for it when I when the big lottery of $100 million or more.

If the cars were gone, does it make sense to make this a bike park.
Road, cycle cross, dream of an indoor velodrome or at least one with a
roof.
