Anyone know the (minimum) lengths of the Hawthorne outdoor Valodrome near Kooyoung ? i.e. measuring from the innner most track.

No, but this is good for a giggle.

Interesting site.

The Hawthorn track ain't too great -- it has hills in it :p

It's pretty small, too -- I'd say less than 250m

Looks like a good forum but might take over 7 days to complete my registration. Is there a bump in it as well?

There's a just a couple of very small humps -- not too bad, but probably bad enough to make them not up to club standard, in my opinion. I reckon there's also a slight rise on the southern side, and a corresponding dip on the north side. And a lot of it has no fence!

It's more a fun sort of velodrome, rather than a serious facility. On the other hand, Carnegie velodrome at Packer Park is excellent.
