The Cleveland Velodrome is well on its way to becoming a reality. Just a small matter of several million dollars stands between now and one of the world’s premier cycling facilities.
In the next several weeks, the board of the Velodrome project is meeting with city officials to continue the process of securing the majority of funding for this ambitious project. The catch, though, is that they need to see a groundswell of local support.
The best way to show your support is to donate to the project. It doesn’t have to be much– just show that you believe in the idea. It’s not so much the dollars– at this point– as people. And, if you can, they’re looking for 150 people to join the Founders Club, a unique opportunity to get involved at the start with a $1000 contribution. Read below for more information.

The Lamastra boys celebrate a great day
Certainly one of Cleveland’s most recognizable races, the St. Malachi Run was the big news this weekend. This year’s 30th anniversary event drew 2200 people, in less-than-ideal conditions.
Although it wasn’t raining for most of the race, it sure was beforehand– along with a stiff breeze and chilly temps. None of that seemed to affect the race attendance, though! SSSMST was represented with about 11 athletes in the race, garnering a 10th overall, and three more top-3 age group finishes. Jim Lamastra, Marty Mason, Brandy Smith, Andy Cornwell, Joe Bush, Bruce Macdonald, and Scott Zubricky all represented– and special props to Patrick Kolozvary and Jen Petkovsek for their first results in SSSMST colors! Congratulations, guys.
Of course, Malachi isn’t complete until you’ve downed your second beer by 11:00 after the race… Thanks to McCarthy’s Ale House for a great post-race party. Read below for a handful of race reports! (Make sure to check out Rob Reddy’s– I included it because… well…)
