Every velodrome in the world. One map.

The map

Zoom in, click any pin for the track's details.

Tracks are layered by status on the map. This key matches the map's own markers — a green bicycle symbol for tracks in use, round dots for the rest, one color per status.

  • In use
  • Exists, status unconfirmed
  • Proposed, in process
  • Proposed, never built
  • Exists, no longer in use
  • Demolished

Know a track we're missing?

A name is all we need to start. A map pin, a link, a photo, or a memory helps more.

What helps most

Plenty of tracks survive only as a name in an old race report. Anything that ties a name to a place moves it from the waiting list onto the map.

A location

A town, a street, a park — or a pin dropped on a map. Even an approximate spot is a start.

A link

A news story, a history page, a Wikipedia entry, a photo set — anything published about the track.

A photo

The track in use, the site today, or what's left of it. Photos confirm what paperwork can't.

A memory

You raced there, watched there, or grew up near it. First-hand accounts place tracks nothing else can.
