About the experience

Soak in the incredible atmosphere of a world-famous cycling track and walk in the footsteps of legends with a cycling experience for two. The Lee Valley VeloPark in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park was built for the London 2012 Olympic Games, and now you can try it out too with an unforgettable cycling session. Whether you want to learn to ride or develop your skills, a 1:1 Adult Tuition or Junior 1:2 Learn to Ride Session is a great place to start. For those who need a little more exhilaration, there’s the Velodrome Flying Lap which allows you to try out fixed wheel bikes on the banked track followed by a speed lap to compare your times to the greats, or a Velodrome and BMX Taster, with two one-hour sessions on two Olympic tracks for a great introduction to the sports. If you’re more goals oriented, there’s the 1:1 VeloStudio Fitness Session where you can test your fitness and performance to help you build a plan to reach your targets. So get cycling!
