Velodrome

Idea:

Well, you asked for a big idea. Atlantic Canada has a lot of cyclists but no indoor velodrome. A velodrome would promote cycling, open up the sport to thousands of Atlantic Canadians, and boost the profile of the city and region in a positive way. Being able to host competitions would be a boost to the economy as well as to many existing bike shops. The facility would run year round and create many jobs. It aligns with modern green initiatives to increase access to bike lanes.
