2012 Oval Omnium Flyer

This year's Oval race series, put on by the Fort Collins Velodrome Association and CSU Rams Cycling will be a true track racing Omnium. Cash prizes and trophies will be given to the top three riders who have accumulated the most points after 4 weeks of racing.

Starting Sunday 5/20 and finishing 6/10 licensed track racers on single speed track bikes will race around the CSU Oval competing in various formats such as miss and out, points and scratch. To not leave anyone out, there will also be an unlicensed messenger class, an open geared class and Children's street sprints. Entry fee each week for anyone 18 and over is $10, KIDS RACE FREE. Registration starts at 3 PM with racing from 4-7 PM.

Volunteers are always needed! Food and drink provided.

Anyone who wants to borrow one will need to:

1) Deposit $150, fully refundable upon return of the undamaged bike after the series ends.

Six Day Races to continue as the Four Day Races

"The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated"

The ever popular 6 Day Races at the Oval will continue for 2012 but with several changes. Tim Anderson had been running the track style races at CSU since their inception in 2009. The future of the series seemed in doubt when Tim decided to step down as the race director. The FCVA and local series supporters met on the 2nd to decide the future of the series. Here's what they came up with.

Paul Schuler will be taking over with help from Adam Wolf, Mikheil Moucharrafie and the CSU Cycling team.
Switching to a 4 week format.
Switching to an omnium series payout format.
Creating a 30 minute geared race.
Current dates are Sundays-May 13th, 20th, 27th and June 3rd.
