# Ordrup velodrome

The Ordrup Velodrome was a cycling track in Ordrup near Copenhagen, Denmark. The track was built on Ejgaarden's land in the Gentofte Municipality in 1888 and was closed in 2000. It hosted the world track cycling championships for a record of nine times: in 1896, 1903, 1909, 1914, 1921, 1931, 1949 and 1956.

## History

Ordrupbanen had its heyday in the years leading up to World War II with Danish world stars such as Thorvald Ellegaard and Willy Falck Hansen repeatedly drawing full houses to Ordrupbanen. The good cycling races, often several times a week, the very large prize money, good cycslst conditions and many spectators meant that all the big international names absolutely wanted to race at Ordrupbanen. Back then, the spectators hung on the roofs around the track, where up to 16,000 spectators could be seen. After the war, it was riders such as Kay Werner and Palle Lykke who attracted big crowds.
The first track premiered on 29 July 1888. It was a 333 1/3 m long sand track without raised corners.
In 1893, the second track became a 333 1/3 m cement track with slightly raised corners.
After a major renovation in 1903, the third track became a 370 m cement track with 40 degree turns. The track was 9 metres wide.
In 1930–31, Henning Hansen built a 110-metre-long grandstand facing Brannersvej. In 1935, a new referee's tower and cabin building were added. The cabin house replaced the round equestrian centre from 1895, which had been in use for forty years.
A fourth track with new cement was ready on 10 May 1987. The new track was 1.80 metres shorter (368.20 m). Due to the renovation, the Ordrup track was not used in 1986.
The final race on 3 September 2000 marked the end of the Danish Bicycle Club's 120-year history at Ordrupbanen. The track was then the world's oldest existing cycle track. The sale of the old track brought the Danish Bicycle Club DKK 18 million. This money was used to build the cycling arena in Ballerup. Today, the area where the Ordrup track was located has been developed with housing and a new era has begun with the construction of Ballerup Super Arena.

# Knuckleball (2018 film)

Knuckleball is a 2018 Canadian thriller film written, directed and co-produced by Michael Peterson. The movie was released on March 3, 2018, at the Cinequest Film & VR Festival.

## Premise

Henry, a 12-year-old boy, discovers his family's dark legacy when his mysterious grandfather suddenly dies leaving him alone on an isolated farm.

## Cast

* Michael Ironside as Jacob
* Munro Chambers as Dixon
* Luca Villacis as Henry
* Kathleen Munroe as Mary
* Chenier Hundal as Paul

## Release
### Reception

On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, Knuckleball has an approval rating of 83% based on 24 reviews. On Metacritic, another review aggregator which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 55 out of 100 based on 5 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Brad Wheeler from The Globe and Mail gave the movie 3 out of 4 starts, writing: The Canadian-made creep-fest begins laboriously as co-writer/director Michael Peterson figures out how to rid the plot of any phones. (Every thrill-maker filmmaker has to deal with that pesky issue, but Peterson's methods are slower than a Macaulay Culkin growth-spurt.) Otherwise, Knuckleball does not flutter; its pace and tone is lean, mean and eerie.
Dennis Harvey, writing for Variety, stated: Michael Peterson effectively earns suspension of disbelief with stark atmospherics, solid performances and a persuasive escalation of panic. Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times called Knuckleball "effective" and said: This is a tautly constructed exercise in suspense, set among striking-looking snowbound fields and farmhouses. It's a vivid slice-of-life, even before the literal slicing begins.

### Accolades

Knuckleball won the 2019 AMPIA Awards in the category of "Best Screenwriter (Drama over 30 minutes)" and was nominated for the same award in the categories of "Best Dramatic Feature" and "Best Director (Drama over 30 minutes)".
