Olympics Track Cycling Tickets Information

Olympics Track Cycling
The history of bicycles, back in the mid-18th century and it has always been used as a mea of transport. Hen it was created, there used to be a difference in the front and rear wheel about the size as the front one was large. It used to cause a lot of hindrance in racing and paddling. It was in 1885; J.K. Starley of England developed a modern version of the bicycle with even and equal sized wheels. It is due to the later development that the bicycle could be used for racing purposes.

During the end of the nineteenth century, cycling gained a lot of boom in the Europe and the United States. The sport was primarily a professional one at that time. It is still very popular in the European continent in these days too. Unlike Europe, the cycling got a stagnant position in the United States. Only the American Olympic victories in Los Angeles in 1984 and the recent victories have helped people in recognizing the importance of the game.

Track Cycling and Olympics
Cycling is always a major event in sports schedule of the Olympic Games every time. There is a change in program like road races, track races, and mountain biking. Track racing has been held at all Olympic Games except for 1912 in Stockholm, when only a road race event was held. There is a very little change in the regulations of the Olympic track cycling from 1924 to 1992. The program consisting basically of a match sprint event, a 1-kilometre time trial, a tandem matches sprint, and a team pursuit race. It was in 1984 that women were admitted to Olympic cycling with a single road race. In 1988 a sprint race on the track for women was also held and in 1992, the women contested an individual pursuit track race. If we look at the most recent Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, there are several new track event being introduced like Women competition of 500-metre time trial, similar to the kilometer time trial contested by men. Men competed in the Madison, Olympic sprint and Keirin races.

Track Cycling
If we look at the style of the track racing then we can see that all the competition is contained in a smooth oval track, called a velodrome, which is banked at an angle of 42 degrees on the ends and 12.4 degrees on the straightaways. Due to an experience in the Tokyo Olympics of 1964, a standoff time limit was later limited to three minutes maximum so every player has to move ahead without any delay. In the men's and women's sprint, the races are one-on-one, three-lap affairs. The racers face off in a best-of-three-heats series. In the first lap allows the two cyclists to ride at a slower pace than walking but after that anything goes (the leader must leave room on the right to pass and the first bike across the line wins the heat.

In the men's and women's individual pursuit, the riders start the race on opposite sides of the track. A rider can win by either catching up to their competitor or recording the faster time. The men's pursuit is raced over 4km and the women's race is 3km. There is a difference in the men's and women's points in race and it causes confusion. Every cyclist gets points over the 40km race (25km for the women) by being one of the top four to cross the finish line every tenth lap. After the race distance has been completed the winner is the racer that has lapped the field. Usually it is more than one racer and that is when the points come into play. Any racer with more of points is considered to be a winner of the event.

It is quite interesting to tell you that the Beijing Games will prove to be the first to feature men's and women's individual BMX events, which features riders on bikes with 20 inch tires racing over a dirt course that includes various narrow turns and jumps.
