One Final Lap at the NSC Velodrome
One Final Lap at the NSC Velodrome｜
一個城市要興建自由車場是得來不易的，當然日後的維護保養也是很大的工程，位於明尼蘇達州布萊恩市National Sports Center Cycling Velodrome就是如此。
去年八月它步上了最後的一程；1990年為了奧運會比賽，承接了許多熱血車手的志願與推動下，NSC賽車場建成了，是美國僅有的26座自由車場之一。戶外木製賽道曾舉辦過1992 Olympic Cycling Trials，幾次美國全國錦標賽，每週系列賽和一些固定的訓練課程活動。
不幸的現實，其特色的室外木製地板在經年累月的氣候摧殘已有多處損壞，而且無法獲得昂貴的維修費用。於是在2019年，NSC賽車場進入了最後一章。
在當天許多車手與觀眾一同到場，心懷感恩的送別它最後一場賽事的最後一圈。
但同時明尼蘇達州也將迎來他們的下一個計畫——「明尼蘇達州自行車中心」此設施不僅能作為自行車比賽之用，其包含自由車場、BMX賽道、滑板公園、BMX公園、自行車通勤中心、餐廳/活動中心、健身中心，並也有訓練課程為年輕學子提供未來從事自行車業的技師專業職訓、課外活動。

Happy Pi Day
剛過完3月14號的大家，你知道除了白色情人節以外，更重要的是，當天也是國際圓周率π節嗎？同時也是著名科學家愛因斯坦（Albert Einstein）的生日，國外「WE ARE Pi 」團隊打造出一台π造型的單車，並讓愛因斯坦壽星騎乘。
就如同他的名言一般
「Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving. 」
