EXTRA INFORMATION
A velodrome is a bicycle racing track where the fastest events in cycling are held. The tracks are oval shaped with banked turns that allow spectators an incredible view of the speed and colour of the sport. The Manukau track is made out of concrete, is 285.7m (3-1/2 laps per kilometer) around and banked to 42. It was completed in 1989 for the 1990 Commonwealth Games. Access to the center of the track is via a tunnel. For further informaiton on Track Cycling please head to http://manukau.velodrome.co.nz
