Somewhat hidden off a frontage road south of Avenue of the Cities, the 1,000-foot track, complete with jumps and berms, is next to the Rock Island County Fairgrounds, and the place to be for organized bicycle racing on dirt in the Quad Cities. The current track was designed by Eric Bress, who created the BMX track for the 2012 London Olympics. This dirt and asphalt course has 8 lanes, and a 24 foot starting gate, with a press tower and lights for racing in the dark. Check the website and Facebook page for the current schedule.
