For many years, cycling events at the Basin Reserve were held alongside athletics meets, both sports sharing the outfield. In 1926 further excitement was added to cycling events at the ground when electric lights were installed to provide the opportunity to hold races at night. Events continued in to the 1950s and several national grasstrack records still belong to the Basin Reserve.
