Adjacent to the nature reserve is the site of former motorcycle stadium, called the Rodenbach Motodrom. The motorcycle club MSC Rodenbach was founded on 17 January 1952 and still exists today despite the fact that the stadium is long gone. Initially a Moto Cross track in 1959, followed by a grass track and then a 600 metres long track before a 400 metres track opened on 31 March 1968.[2] The stadium hosted significant motorcycle speedway events including qualifying rounds of the Speedway World Team Cup in 1971, 1972 and 1980,[3] the Speedway World Pairs Championship in 1974 and qualifying rounds of the Speedway World Championship.[4] The stadium featured terracing and attracted good attendances before being demolished in 1986 and eventually reclaimed by nature.[2]
