Olympic track cycling explained

Submitted by Brent Hugh on Sun, 08/22/2004 - 4:42pm
A BBC article tackles the subject of Olympic track cycling:
Track cycling is one of the most exciting and maddest sports in the world.

And, believe it or not, it's been on the go for over 100 years!

The beginning of track racing was as far back as the 1880's. . . .

There are a total of 12 track events at the Olympics - eight men's events and four women's. These can be broadly classified into sprint races and endurance races.
