Most of the people involved in the project so far believe that the best way to get the Dryside velodrome up and running is with an official non-profit that will have the purpose of raising money for the initial construction and operational costs. Registering a non-profit is a time consuming and costly process in itself, and we would greatly appreciate any help from those with previous experience with non-profits, as well as any cash money donations to pay the bureaucrats. Another option is to obtain official fiscal sponsorship from another non-profit. We’re looking for feedback, knowledgeable or otherwise, on these ideas.
The Dryside Velodrome Project
Because there aren't enough velodromes in the world.
is there a target date for opening? any plans on dimensions? indoor? outdoor? details!!
It’s feasible that with enough help and support we could have this thing surfaced and ridable by mid-summer. Right now length estimates are at 210-240m. Definitely outdoor for a while but we’re not excluding the possibility of getting a simple barn style roof over it in the future. This isn’t going to be an official or high class track by any means at first, but it will be a lot of fun and have a lot of character, and it will still host some great training and racing.
