Patinodrome

A patinodrome is an arena for inline speed skating. They are oval tracks similar to velodromes used for track cycling, but have flat straights and shallow-banked or no banked curves. They are typically outdoors or under cover with open or partial walls. Patinodromes are common in Europe, but rare in North America.

gollark: Mostly I want one which will just get reasonably okay images, although that is often lacking on the cheaper ones I get.
