Balance Bikes:
Balance Bikes are small bikes without pedals for children ages 18 mos. & up, who do not know how to ride a bike yet. Balance bikes race on the regular track Tuesday, Fridays and Sundays during our regular racing event. At the end of practice, the last two straights are closed to all other riders to allow the balance bikes practice time on the regular track before their race. Balance Bike races are $5. Balance Bike membership is $30.
Spectators are always free!
