History
The Lee Valley VeloPark stands as a symbol of cycling excellence and innovation, etched into the fabric of sporting history. Nestled in London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, its importance reverberates through the cycling world.
Constructed for the 2012 Olympic Games, the Lee Valley VeloPark hosted track cycling events, igniting a fervour for the sport across the globe. Its state-of-the art indoor track, designed by renowned architect Ron Webb, has since become a hallowed ground for cyclists, attracting amateurs and professionals alike - including Bradley Wiggin's hour record.
Beyond track cycling, the Lee Valley VeloPark encompasses a BMX track, mountain biking trails, and road circuits, offering a comprehensive hub for all cycling disciplines.
Its legacy transcends mere infrastructure, inspiring generations of cyclists and serving as a beacon for future champions to hone their skills and chase their dreams on its iconic velodrome.
