Video: Kissena Velodrome Bike Ride

Sep 12th, 2009

Had the opportunity to ride a few laps at the Kissena Velodrome in Queens. Video shows five laps around the track at 4 times the normal speed. Video was shot on a weekday when there were no races or events scheduled (Track schedule)

    Hi,

    Curious to know what bike you used to ride the velodrome? And what lap times are considered to be “good” lap times?

    Hi Andy -

    I was riding a road bike that has been set up as a commuter bike, so not exactly a fast bike (weighs close to 40 pounds with lock).

    I did 5 laps (400m x 5 = 2 kilometers) in a little over 5 minutes, which is very slow compared to some recent race times –> http://www.bikeblognyc.com/?p=347
