Track
cycling is a historic Olympic discipline that has been around since the first
Games of the modern era. It is run in a velodrome in a variety of individual
and team speed event formats. A velodrome has a 250m track with sharp bends, on
which cyclists move with impressive ease. There are many different types of
races that take place on the track, each with its own specificities, some
relying more on tactics or power than others.
