Races

Mad Track Cycling has revitalized the extreme sport, Madison Team Racing, which was created back in 1899 in the famous Madison Square Garden in NYC. Riders hit unbelievable speeds up to 40 mph on bikes without brakes, whizzing around the 1/10th mile track in 10 seconds or less. The track is designed with a 15 degree banking in the straightaways and 50 degree banking in the turns. Events will include Madisons, Chases, Eliminations and Keirins, the bettors' favorite. Cyclists from all over the US and the world will come to the Olympic-style Lexus Velodrome in Detroit, Michigan, where you can experience the full event in person or watch it all live online at MadTrackCycling.com.
