Looking Ahead

It is critically important we continue to invest in quality track racing here at the Geraint Thomas National Velodrome of Wales, not only to support our talent on home soil but to expose new audiences and young people to the sport for our future, who over 3 days have been able to see the incredible racing on their doorstep. Without our sponsors and supporters this wouldn’t have happened so we are incredibly grateful to them. 

With such incredible performances, the future looks bright for track cycling in Wales. We can’t wait to see these riders continue their success throughout the season.
