Weather Policy
As with other outdoor Velodromes, the answer to questions about our rain policy is that when the track is wet the track is closed
. The difficulties arise when we have to decide whether we can have racing if the weather is iffy. In those cases we'll try to make a call as early as possible. We consider when the track will most likely dry, whether there is more rain coming on the radar, and what kind of racer turnout we would have if we didn't cancel. On race nights we will post updates here and on TXBRA, we know we won't catch all of the out of city/out of state commuters before they start off for the Superdrome, but hopefully this policy will work out best for all.  Off Season Note: Must be 45 degrees Fahrenheit to open track during daylight, 55 F Evening Sessions
