Current ATRA Projects
Insurance
ATRA provides access to economical insurance rates for it's member velodrome to allow them to focus on programming and ridership for their track. There are lots of benefits to running races under ATRA insurance and this is one of ATRA's main goals in providing services to it's member velodromes.
Website and Social Media
ATRA's web and social media(facebook and twitter) presence helps connect all of the velodromes across the country that are members of ATRA. This connection allows member velodromes to have a broader reach with their marketing efforts, and provides one place for riders to get more information about other velodromes and races going on across the country.
National Championship Series
The collection of the majority of the major track racing events across the US is compiled into one series called the ATRA National Championship Series(NCS). Currently in it's second year, the series is growing in popularity amongst the riders and provides a platform for riders to travel to new velodromes and experience new races.
Season Guide Book
In 2011 ATRA produced a 24 page Season Guide booklet that contained information about ATRA and it's member velodromes and their programming, information about how to start racing the track, information about the National Championship Series and the full season major event schedule. In 2012 the guide expanded to it's current 28 page format with the introduction of several new velodromes and additional members.
