May DLV Update

The racing season started a few weeks ago and so far has been a great success. We are very happy to see the velodrome come alive again!

Below are the changes starting in June.

We will continue the same programming and every other week rotation of racing as we did in May with one exception. The program on the 5th Wednesday will be at the Race Director’s discretion. Come prepared for whatever gets thrown at you. I promise, there will be a mix of short and long races.

Field limits will be raised as follows:

  • Group 1: 25 riders
  • Group 2: 20 riders
  • Group 3: 15 riders

We will begin charging for racing and going cashless. The fee for racing on Wednesday nights for the 2021 season will be $20 processed through the DLV website. For the month of June, racing will be discounted 50% ($10 off).

Riders 18 and under will race for free. When you go to purchase a ticket to race, you will see a coupon code listed. Use this code during the checkout process to receive a free ticket to race.

The fees collected are used to pay officials, registration workers, results workers and the general operating expenses of the velodrome.

Thanks for your support, and happy racing!
