I have written a post about this amazing cycling venue before I have even done one of the courses on the track and my sone and I often pop down at the weekends. Herne Hill Velodrome is a wonderful step back in time and one of those special experiences that takes you into the heart of cycling history, yet it is planned for demolition despite its incredible history.
Please help to stop the destruction of the oldest cycle track in Britain - the 1948 Olympic Cycling Championships venue. The future of this important community facility is looking bleak as the site is under-funded and deteriorating. The venue provides an exceptional resource for cyclists and the local community and its loss would be tragic. We aim to find a way to secure the future of the site and make it a viable long-term facility for all including local residents and schools.
