Listen "Star Track, a program introducing kids to track cycling."
Episode Synopsis
The "Star Track Youth Program" is based around the Kissena Velodrome in Flushing, Queens. The program focuses on kids between the ages of 8-16 from under resourced communities. Star Track is a 100% free program. The kids set goals, participate in a weekly training schedule and become part of a competitive cycling team. In 2022 Star Track starts a UCI track team. Members on the team include current national team member Josh Hartman, Grant Koontz, who just won a gold medal in the Pam Games scratch race to Joe Christiansen. This program is funded by sponsors like Felt Bicycles and private donations. Star Track is a program solely focused on bettering the lives of kids whether they go on to race or not.
