[VBC Buddies] New velodrome opens in South Carolina

[Vicki VBC]

One of these articles says that at the turn of the 20th century the biggest sports attraction in Rock Hill, SC was bicycling.  The city's first cycling race was in 1890 with riders from all over the country.  Looks like their new velodrome opened the weekend before last and will host the 2012 and 2013 USA Cycling International Omnium Track National Championships.  If you're interested, here's a list of the articles the Rock Hill local paper has on it.  You may have seen other articles in cycling mags already.  (It's half an hour south of Charlotte, NC if you're ready to pack up the bike and fly out here.)
