Burnaby Velodrome

The only indoor velodrome in Canada and one of three in North America, the Burnaby Velodrome is a unique facility, located just below SFU on Barnet Highway in Burnaby. Inside the Harry Jerome Sports Centre is a 200M long and 6m wide wooden cycling track with 47 degree corners. The Burnaby Velodrome was built by Cycling BC and numerous volunteers between 1991 and 1997. It replaced the China Creek Velodrome, which was built for the 1954 Empire Games and was demolished in 1980 to make way for the construction of the Broadway campus of Vancouver Community College. The Burnaby Velodrome opened its doors in November 1997.
