Giordana Velodrome is a cycling track in Rock Hill, South Carolina, United States. It opened in March 2012.[1]
The 250-meter track is made of concrete with a 42.5 degree embankment in the corners and a 17 degree embankment on the front and back straights.[2] The velodrome is part of the Rock Hill Outdoor Center. U.S. national track cycling championships were held there in 2012 and 2013.[3] The velodrome was designed by Ralph Schürmann, a cycling track architect from Münster, Germany.
Giordana Velodrome is going to be the center of a recreational area, of which the construction is still in progress. Additional cycling venues, athletic fields, parks, gardens and greenspace are planned nearby.
