Milan has set aside €6.3m for a renovation project of the awesome Vigorelli velodrome. Only a couple of years ago the velodrome was approved to be demolished before The Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities stepped in to save it. Work is scheduled to begin this August.

The Marymoor Crawl - Slow Race/Fast Race

This is pretty fun! Riders start on turn 4 and are not allowed to cross the start/finish line until the bell rings. The bell could ring anytime between 3-4 minutes from the start and riders are teased with cash to the front. Riders are not allowed to interfere with each other, hold the rail, put a foot down etc.
Once the bell rings is a flat out 1 lap sprint!

David Millar Vs Liam Phillips Vs The World - Parkour Ride, London, 4th October 2014

Parkour Ride will kick off in just under a months time and David Millar will be joining in the fun!
 " I'll be racing Oct 4th in London, it's a little different to the Vuelta"
(He said it on Twitter, it must be true!)




Parkour Ride is a multi-discipline head-to-head elimination race with two riders racing a special circuit up and down the multi-storey car park. The event space will vary across every level, featuring different spectator attractions, music, food stalls and bars around the circuit. Technology, sound and video will be harnessed to create a unique audio/visual experience for fans and riders.

Parkour Ride is open to male and female riders on all kinds of bikes. The main disciplines will be BMX, mountain bike and road bike (including fixed gear/single speed).

Riders will line up against Parkour Ride pros. Pros include Parkour Ride ambassador and World BMX Champion, Liam Phillips, plus stars from the worlds of BMX, mountain bike, track and road.

the Circuit is going to be like this. Should be simple enough going up, but pretty tight turns at speed coming down. The Parkour Ride winner will receive £2000 & the top 10 riders will receive prizes from the race partners and sponsors.
