Ride a bike at the Major Taylor Velodrome
Indy Cycloplex
One of 18 velodrome tracks in the country, named after Indy's own African American bike superstar Major Taylor. Bring your road or track bike (no BMX) and your helmet and throw down $4 and you can race on the inverted track that Olympic superstars have tried out on. If you don't have your own wheels, you can rent one as well. Perhaps you'll catch a race or one of many remote control car races they host too. There is a BMX park next door. Ages 10+. Major Taylor Velodrome will be converted into a snow park during the winter months. Hit the slopes 15 Nov-1 Mar.
