Women’s Track Cycling
Women’s track cycling is a competitive sport where female athletes race on a velodrome, a specially designed oval track. Events include sprints, pursuits, and points races, showcasing speed, strategy, and endurance. Cyclists use fixed-gear bicycles, which have no brakes, requiring skill and precision.
The sport has gained popularity and recognition, especially with events in the Olympics and World Championships. Women’s track cycling promotes gender equality in sports, encouraging more female participation and visibility. Organizations like UCI (Union Cycliste Internationale) oversee regulations and competitions, helping to develop the sport globally.
