Closing the Loop

After spending a month and a half, hundreds of man-hours, and a heaping mound of wood, we've finally completed the track of Cyclodrome. In a last blitz day of track-building, we put together the last quadrant and screwed the last piece into place.
The last piece was a smooth fit.

While the most intense building is finished and it's possible to ride the track in its present state, our work is still ongoing. Some of the final safety measures are still under construction and we must still sand and paint the track for a smoother, long-lasting ride. All that aside, after so much time spent planning, building and visualizing, it's satisfying to step back and admire a fully-constructed track. It looks smaller and steeper in real life than it did on paper or in renders, but that only adds to the appeal of riding it.

Watch this space for video of Cyclodrome in action - and for bulletins on when and where you can ride it too.
Bikes are optional.
