Where to practice an individual sport Roubaix

Want to live a unique experience and get your adrenaline flowing? Treat yourself to a first ride on the inclined track of the Stab, the covered regional velodrome of Roubaix. Inclined at 44.3°, this track promises you real thrills! No need to come equipped, all the equipment is provided on site (bike, shoes, helmets and gloves). The velodrome also organizes discovery sessions of cycling on track open to all, even to the little ones. A really nice activity to do with family or friends. Moreover, the velodrome opens its track to more experienced cyclists, licensed or not, who want to exercise in a unique place. But the Stab is not only a cycling track, it also has badminton courts, weight rooms and even a BMX track managed by the Vélo Club de Roubaix. A temple of leisure sports, the Stab also hosts many prestigious competitions. It thus hosted the track cycling championships in September 2017. Finally, you should know that the place offers rooms and spaces for rent for your conferences and seminars. Quite an original meeting place, isn't it? Something to motivate participants! In short, the covered velodrome of Roubaix is a welcoming place, offering activities for all and especially unique sensations and emotions!

On the occasion of the 2010 Heritage Days, the city of Roubaix, a city of art and history, brought to the honour its canal by producing a virtual exhibition: The Canal/A Roubaisienne, presented since September 2010 on the digital library of Roubaix, from the collections of the library and municipal archives. The result is an exciting interactive document, on the history but should the topicality of the canal de Roubaix, to look on its screen, with photographs of archives and a very interesting chronology of this canal, its construction, navigation, fishing… You can also download and print a small document that summarizes history. A very nice achievement!
