WELCOME TO THE PORTLAND VELODROME PROJECT |
The Portland Velodrome Committee was formed to address the long term
sustainability of the current track at Alpenrose Dairy and to explore
the possibility of building an indoor facility for year round training
and racing. Currently, Portland has one of the most vibrant track
cycling programs in the United States. Host to the longest
running six day race in the United States and the nationally renowned
AVC, Portland is a favorite of track cyclists. Key to the
continued success and growth of this program is the need for an
improved facility.
The committee is moving forward with fundraising for a portable wooden 
meter track. The length and geometry will allow for it to be housed in
a year round venue. Discussions are underway with architects concerning
costs, materials and design. The initial goal is to raise
$500,000 for track construction. At the same time plans are being
made to find an affordable means to allow year round training.
Our goal is to use the combined resources of the greater Portland
racing community, business and government to provide track racing
facilities that showcase Portland as the premier cycling city in the
United States. All donations of money, time and resources are
welcome. Please visit the donate or contact section to become
part of the team.
