Pretty typical for any "Balustrade" (the fense around a velodrome) ....
It is at a level the riders can hold on to it before rolling out ...
for some events. Traditions sometimes kill.

Typical track racing , and a classic hook. You can take 'em to the
fense .... but you aren't supposed to leave them there.

If you want to check out poor sportsmanship ... watch the end of this

I'd like to know what happened to the poor chap who slid lifelessly down the
track. Looks like he hit his head on a post but no one mentions him.

Tracking cycling is f^&cking mental. I've only tried is a few times,
never competed, but 35 miles an hour on fixed wheel single speed bone
shaker, with no brakes, traveling an inch from the guy in front on hard
concrete. A recommend everyone try it at least once.

Laters,
