Revolution track series expands to Newport and Australia
Season 5 of the Revolution kicks off on October 20th. Watch a video from last year's series on YouTube here.
The series continues November 17th, January 12th and February 23rd. With British Cycling and many international riders now using the Revolution as crucial preparation for UCI competition the racing is getting harder and faster with riders travelling from outside Europe to experience the Revolution rush.
This year the Revolution will be top and tailed by the National Track Championships and World Championships providing an active season of racing for the newly-laid Manchester track.
However, not all the Revolution action will take place in Manchester with new events scheduled for Australia, and the Future Revolution taking place on the 13th and 14th October at the Newport Velodrome.
“The Revolution brand is growing,” said James Pope from Face Partnership.
“We have established a partner to develop Revolution in Australia with an official launch scheduled for the beginning of October. In addition, the Future Revolution, which has been developed in partnership with DHL, has been set up for juniors providing an exciting race programme for British juniors to take on their international counterparts.”
New for this year, Face Partnership has boosted the corporate hospitality offering. VIP track centre tables now get better access to the star riders - including track taster sessions - and there's a post-event party in a Manchester venue as well as betting on riders with 'Revolution cash'.
