The Velodrome at Bloomer Park is a facility for all ages at all stages. A crew of dedicated volunteers run the day to day operations of the Velodrome which was paid for by private donations through the non-profit Mike Walden Velodrome Fund administered by the Community Foundation of Greater Rochester. The Velodrome was built by volunteers consisting of members of the cycling community, many of whom had never seen a cycling track before, came out to build the steel and wood structure. Volunteer welders, carpenters, earth movers, children, adults and senior citizens worked side-by-side, week-after-week to a grand conclusion. The Velodrome at Bloomer Park is located in Bloomer Park in the City of Rochester Hills, Michigan and is the only one of its kind in North America.

In seven seasons of cycling, hundreds of racers have taken to the boards, thousands of youngsters have visited and many have ridden, while nearly half a million television viewers saw bike racing on the Velodrome and every summer Friday night hundreds of spectators arrive at The Velodrome at Bloomer Park, open up their lawn chairs and cheer on their favorite racers for NAS-TRACK Team Racing. This showcase event at the Velodrome was developed by Dale Hughes to captivate the public with fast-paced, daring, racing format and to develop the sport and the racers in it. Two of the "hottest" junior racers in the country learned their skills - and race regularly - at The Velodrome at Bloomer Park. Two of the country's best female racers are from the The Velodrome at Bloomer Park, one recently earned three national championship jerseys. The racing format is a success and still, day in and day out, one 74 year old man rides for fitness around the 1/8 mile / 200 meter Velodrome.
