4gamesandcounting 39 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Here's a quick question - where was the last games to have an outdoor velodrome? Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1902 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I seem to remember that Atlanta was outdoors. Link to post Share on other sites

memorabilia 80 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 incorrect ? Beijing and Sydney are for sure indoor velodromes. But I am not sure that we could say that Athens' one was an indoor one, even if it is opened on its overall circumference.... for me it has a roof so it is indoor ! So i agree with Sir Rotel, the last one was Atlanta Link to post Share on other sites
4gamesandcounting 39 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Memorabilia you spotted my trick answer. I would say that although Athens had a roof - so could be classed as indoors. It is not climate controlled, and therefore from a UCI point of view probably wouldn't be classed as an indoor velodrome. Atlanta was of course the last location to have a proper outdoor velodrome. Feel free to disagree with me though! Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Rols 1902 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 LOL - I thought the trick in your question was that you said "Games" but didn't specify Olympics. I expected the answer to be a CWGs, Asian Games, even a gay Games, velodrome. Link to post Share on other sites
