Lakeside’s Welcome Center 8555 S. Greenbay Rd. will be open 9-5 both days with their bus tours of the US Steel site running hourly 10-4. The bus tour drives by the velodrome twice during each bus tour and the guide usually has commentary about the track and it's history.

Saturday's getting closer, weather's looking great and we're excited.
A few other attendees committed off-line and we're expecting a good turn out.
Day's activities will be a mixture...
- "Casual riding" on the track (below Stayers' Line) will be allowed when work isn't being performed and the surface is clear.
- Painting- medium to large-sized, on plywood and steel.
- Patch-work on the track surface.
- Finer repair work on the small fissures and the apron.
- Assembly of monster-sized erector set (ADA ramp).
- Feel free to bring friends and food to add to the grill!
* Car pool to conserve energy! :) Comment or message us to arrange rides.
** METRA stop is 2 blocks away and allows bikes on trains.
