About the Track

 F.A.Q.

The only license or membership you actually NEED to race on the 7-11 United States Olympic Training Center Velodrome is a USCF License. You can get information about that from USA Cycling.

In addition, we recommend that you join a CVA Member Club and join the CVA. We have a complete list of benefits for CVA Members, it can be found here.

Unfortunately, your ACA membership will not allow you to race on the Colorado Springs velodrome. All of our training and racing is sanctioned by the USCF.

Getting hooked up with one of the CVA Member Clubs is a great place to start. The riders on these clubs have a great depth of knowledge and are always willing to share information with you.

Another great track racing resource is FixedGearFever. It is regularly updated with information about track racing around the world. You can also check our links page for other resources!

Finally, you can contact the CVA directly using Our contact page.

We understand that the acronyms can be a little crazy! Let us help work a few out here!
