In 2010, we had this crazy idea: Dig out an old, nearly forgotten velodrome in Detroit, patch it up, cut down the brush and hold a race there. Thanks to friends, sponsors, and the community at large in a little over a month we managed to do it and make a helluva good time of it. We call it The Thunderdrome! Everyone had such a hoot at the 2010 event that we’re doing it again every year year – only bigger and better. We’re adding more classes and a whole mess of other great ideas brewed up over bad brew. The Thunderdrome! isn’t your average race: it’s loose, it’s raw, and it’s for people who take their corn flakes with a little bit of rocket fuel. You have to be a little weird to like it – but that’s what makes it good!
