Local track racers will get a chance to take on pro cyclist Tyler Farrar of Garmin-Sharp at the Marymoor velodrome tonight. Farrar, a Wenatchee native who resides in Seattle and Gent, Belgium, is currently training for Tour of California and is looking to fine tune his sprint with some track racing.

Farrar will be racing in the Pro/1/2 field at 7 p.m. It's not everyday that you get to watch a top USA tour racer up-close, so grab your friends, a blanket and a picnic and ride over to Marymoor for an exciting night of pre-season track racing!
