London Mini Drome

Red Bull's efforts to jump on the bandwagon of get involved with every sport known to man continues, with the news that they'll be sponsoring some kind of mini-velodrome in London this coming January. There are no details other than the claim that the track will be "the world's smallest velodrome" and that riders will reach speeds of up to 80kph... which is 50mph. Suuuure...

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how short and steep "the world's smallest velodrome" will actually be. More details at Bike Radar and the official site here.
