RED BULL MINI DROME NYC - 2015
Event Information
Description
Red Bull Mini Drome is a racing competition for fixed gear cyclists where they race against the clock and then against each other to see who is the fastest burner on two wheels. In front of a cheering audience, 16 Teams of 2 (32 riders) will complete a series of laps around a barely-ever-before-seen figure eight track. The mythical concept, which is known to only have existed a few times, one being the 1995 Toronto Cycle Messenger World Championships, involves more speed, extra precision and a bit of danger as cyclist take turn after turn without rest. The field will get narrowed down to 8 Teams with the quickest times and will culminate with a head-to-head race amongst the 32 fastest All Star riders from last years event.
HOST: DAVE ORTIZ
