Indoor artificial turf crits
This part of the world is littered with indoor soccer
facilities. These guys are running off hours crits in one of them, utilizing time when the facility would otherwise be vacant. The bike of choice is a cross bike because the surface is a little soft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D48omON663Q F |

They're at peace with the velodrome. It doesn't cost them anything and time will eventually remove it. I'm pretty sure it's past it's projected life, and the maintenance effort is increasing exponentially. F |

He says one of the big variables with artificial fields is how well the fake grass tufts resist being pulled out of their anchor surface (the good fake grass will break before it pulls out). He says if they're using the cheap stuff, "could be an expensive event." |
