The Velodrome Challenge

Join fellow cycling enthusiasts, and Olympic legends including Victoria Pendleton CBE and Jody Cundy CBE at our sixth velodrome event.

If you’ve got a passion for cycling and a desire to improve your performance and knowledge, there is nowhere better than on one of the fastest tracks in the world.

You and your teammates will be cycling a competitive, high-adrenaline race at Lee Valley VeloPark, a velodrome built for London’s 2012 Olympic cycling events.

On 16 November, guests will have the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in a competitive, high adrenaline event for cycling enthusiasts. Our guests will learn how to compete in the team sprint as well as improving their cycling knowledge and all round performance.
