Track Cycling Set For BBC Coverage
The UCI Track Cycling World Cup, which will be staged in Glasgow from November 16-18th, will receive coverage from the BBC. The event will appear on BBC TV, including the red button, and bbc.co.uk/sport.
Track cycling proved to be one of the most popular events with TV audiences during the Olympics and the World Cup in Glasgow sold out within an hour.
The competition will be staged in Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome and will feature a host of Olympic cyclists across a range of disciplines.
Jonny Clay, Cycle Sport and Membership Director of British Cycling, said: ‘It’s fantastic that the BBC have increased broadcast coverage for the Track Cycling World Cup. Cycling is at an all-time high since London 2012 so people can get to enjoy watching more international cycling action. As the event is now a sell-out, we are now focused on preparing to deliver a great event for those attending or watching it at home.’
