Track Bike Races
- A track bicycle or track bike is a bicycle optimized for racing at a velodrome or outdoor track. Unlike road bicycles, the track bike is a fixed-gear bicycle and so has a single gear and neither freewheel nor brakes. Tires are narrow and inflated to high pressure to reduce rolling resistance.

Short Track Mountain Bike Racing
This photo was taken in Africville (Formerly Seaview Park) in Halifax. They have a short track moutain bike circuit there. I have taken up moutain biking myself this year, one explanation for my lack of photography, I have been getting out biking as much as possible as I may try racing myself next year. I look forward to reconnecting with my flickr buddies and seeing your great photos!
